PREDICTION OF THE CENTRAL MEXICO EVENT (7.1; 09-19-2017)
2017-09-21 07:00:03
We are sending you a screenshot of our 2017-09-19 early prediction of an imminent earthquake that we suggested might strike southern Mexico (Guatemala or Honduras) by the passing of Hurricane Maria along the northeastern boundary of the Caribbean plate (our prediction was sent to several social media the morning of Tuesday the 19th and can be certified). In the same way that we proposed that there seem to have solid cause-effect relationships between hurricane Irma and the 2017-09… [more]

Broadband recording recovered from 4.5 Hz geophone

Attached is a Raspberryshake plot of the recording from my basement corrected to a BB 0.01-2 Hz seismogram. Not bad for a 4.5 Hz geophone. It was an M8 after all. K. McLaughlin Alexandria, VA USA

North Korean event of 2017-09-03, special event page
2017-09-03 23:16:59 - 2017-09-04 00:35:55
Hello Manochehr, I am sending along a comparison plot of the six most recent and largest North Korea tests, with amplitudes both normalized and not normalized. It includes maps to show the locations of the tests and the test site relative to the seismic station. I'm sure there are a lot of these figures floating around out there so no need to post if it is redundant. Thank you for putting together the special event page. Cheers, Kasey Aderhold IRIS
