ConclusionConclusion The correct and full prediction of EQs The correct and full prediction of EQs

(area, time window and magnitude) is not (area, time window and magnitude) is not an an easy task. For this prediction easy task. For this prediction aas many s many different different methods covered the whole Earthmethods covered the whole Earth as possible must be used .as possible must be used .

NoNone of thesene of these method method should bshould be used e used alone.alone.

The prediction of the strongest EQs is The prediction of the strongest EQs is a a global task. The precursors could be global task. The precursors could be observed everywhere and many days observed everywhere and many days (M7) (M7) or even months or even months (M9) (M9) before before the mainshockthe mainshock..

The EQ prediction is POSSIBLE. It is The EQ prediction is POSSIBLE. It is aa real real scientific task.scientific task.
