INTERNATIONAL
SOCIETY FOR EARTHQUAKE PRECURSORS
We,
the founder and members of the board of I.S.E.P., the International
Society of Earthquake Precursors, believe that earthquake prediction
is a science and technology, and, yes, also the art of obtaining information
about impending seismic events from lithospheric, atmospheric, ionospheric
and other natural sources.
The
scientists and academicians who have created I.S.E.P. believe that,
while the mechanisms leading to earthquakes have their origin in the
lithosphere, the underlying processes also find expressions in atmospheric
and the ionospheric phenomena. Many of them recognize that the mechanisms
leading to earthquakes may also be related to an even greater scenario,
i.e. the movements and positions of the earth, the earth-moon system,
planetary movements and positions within the solar system etc.
They
believe that work contributed by amateur researchers, dedicated to the
field, and observations by laypersons from around the world and through
the ages, are valuable. They believe that such work and such observations
need to be taken into account to arrive at a better understanding of
the complexity of the earthquake process, and recognize that their observations
should and could play an important role at community level in prediction
of earthquakes and other natural hazards.
Even though many earthquake-related anomalies within and on the ground,
in the atmosphere and ionosphere have been reported for decades, some
even for centuries, today’s seismology-centered science community
refuses to take these observations into account. In the meantime, earthquakes
continue to strike for which a forewarning could have been issued, people
continue to die or to be injured, and economic losses continue to incur
in the range of billions of dollars, often a sizeable fraction of the
GNP of the countries affected by the disasters.
Before weather predictions became widely accepted, the scientific community
had to spend decades learning about climatology and the physical laws
that govern the complex interactions between the air masses, the land
and the oceans at all scales. The scientific community concerned with
weather forecasts had to consider historical data, collect extraordinarily
large amounts of present, real-time data, and build satellites to monitor
the Ocean-atmosphere system. If earthquake predictions are to become
as effective – or as routine - as today’s weather predictions,
science has to move away from the conventional, predominantly seismological
approach.
I.S.E.P. is a non-governmental international organization, devoted to
the development of the international cooperation for the advancement
of knowledge, research, development, education and training in the sciences
of earthquake early warning, of the integration and application, with
the goal to contribute to the well-being of humanity and the sustainability
of the environment.
Another goal of I.S.E.P. is to create a foundation legally entitled
to accept donations and grants aimed at helping its members to carry
out their research. The members will protect the independence of their
work and will adhere to stringent ethical rules governing their research.
Their projects and the results of the work of the members, especially
their experiences in cases of successful earthquake predictions, will
be published on the I.S.E.P. web site, in journals and report documents.
Members
of the general public who want to make donations or governmental agencies
who are willing to consider grants will be able to consult the I.S.E.P.
web site or journal articles or newsletter reports.
The members will be entitled to write articles in scientific and popular
media to promote their research with reference to their affiliation
to I.S.E.P.
