Natural catastrophes do not depend on the actions of people, that's the reason why it seems that we can't do anything in order to resist them. Sometimes catastrophes result in death of hundreds of people and in damage of private and public property. In this way natural catastrophes affect not only the government and ordinary people of the country where the disaster has taken place, but they have influence on people living in different areas of the world, from the residents of islands in the Pacific ocean to the residents of cities in Europe and the United States. For a long time earthquakes have been considered to be a natural disaster that can't be controlled. People from the regions that are often suffering from earthquakes are learned since their childhood how to act during an earthquake. But nevertheless, the unexpectedness of any earthquake can bring to huge damages to material things and to lives of people as well.
During long time people have been searching for an opportunity to predict when earthquake takes place. Earthquake forecasts can help people to minimize the negative consequences from this natural disaster. If there is an earthquake risk people can as a minimum move from their houses beforehand and to save their lives and the most expensive property. After a few decades of scientific researches the reasons and stimulating mechanisms of earthquakes have been discovered. This concept allowed to develop special tools that monitor the dynamics of processes and on the base of this observation are able to give early reliable earthquake forecast with indication of the region, time and magnitude of the coming earthquake.
Our organization works in the branch of earthquake forecasts for more than twenty years. A huge amount of materials have been collected during these years. Long-term experience and constant improving of the concept of earthquake forecasting guarantee the solution of essential problems in the branch of instruments for earthquake forecast, as well as ensure the receipt of reliable results. Thorough description of earthquake forecasting concept and other helpful information about earthquake forecasting can be found on our webpage.
