| Zusammenfassung |
| Ida et al. (2012) identified anomalous decreases in the fractal dimension of
the vertical (Z) component of the geomagnetic field, which they interpreted
as precursors to the China earthquake of 1 September 2003. According
to Ida et al. (2012), short-term earthquake prediction seems to be possible
only by using electromagnetic phenomena. Here, it is shown that the
decreases of the fractal dimension documented by Ida et al. (2012) are not
really anomalous, but they are part of the normal geomagnetic activity
driven by solar–terrestrial interactions. As a consequence, these fractal
dimension decreases are not related to the 1 September 2003
earthquake. |
