Surface latent heat flux (SLHF) has been associated with the study of natural hazards, such as earthquakes and hurricanes and has been proposed as a useful quantity in the prediction and monitoring of their evolution. In the present study the Mediterranean Sea, parts of Europe, Africa and Turkey...

In this paper, we analyze the irregular behavior of earthquake ground motion as recorded during the Kraljevo M5 ….4 earthquake, which occurred on November 3rd, 2010 in Serbia. We perform the analysis for the ground accelerations recorded at 6 … assumed deterministically chaotic nature of earthquake ground motion. …

The spatial and temporal distributions between successive earthquakes are treated in the framework of nonextensive statistical mechanics. We find temporal distributions exhibit the power law behavior; q-exponential with q1. It means the earthquakes are strongly correlated in time. The spatial...

Evaluating complex fluctuations in geoelectric time series is an important task not only for earthquake prediction but … also for understanding complex processes related to earthquake preparation. Previous studies have reported alterations …, such as the emergence of correlated dynamics in geoelectric potentials prior to an important earthquake (EQ). However, the …
