Earth's electrical scars subtopic: earthquakes, earthquake prediction
Thank you for those wonderful links, jackokie. Very good reading. Yes, earthquakes and volcanoes are caused by underground lightning and are related to solar activity.
If you have increasing solar activity, such as increased sunspots, CMEs and solar flares, there is a greater chance that all of that will cause earthquakes because it causes geomagnetic storms, which in turn can cause underground electrical currents. Your first link addressed that. And that is just one element of the electrical connection between the sun and earth; as you point out, there are polar connections between the planets and the sun, identified around here as Birkland currents, but also known as magnetic flux ropes.
So what was and still is my problem with this earthquake prediction app based on solar activity?
I had much higher hopes for applying the science of the electric universe to geophysics than just calculating risk in general areas.
I believe that the only way to predict earthquakes, if you follow the published materials of the electric universe, is through instrumental observations. The most important network would be infrasound sensors, but there are other earthquake precursors that are detectable as well, which, together with the infrasound, would tell you where currents and electrical charges are building up to an event.
We also have van Allen belts which store charged particles in toroids around the planet, and if those are whacked by an incoming charged object, a solar flare, or by a certain frequency, that can 1. create additional van Allen belts, and 2. release tremendous electrical charges in the near earth environment in various ways.
Lots of paths for those electrical currents to take from the van Allen belts.
At the time I felt perhaps slightly bitter because I am sick to death of my soul because of these modelers calculating risk and calling it science. But like I said, I think SO's heart was in the right place so I just commented on Tallbloke's a couple of times on the subject and let it go.
