Predicting Earthquakes

The video discusses the challenges and advancements in predicting earthquakes. While seismologists cannot predict the exact timing or location of earthquakes, they have made progress in understanding fault lines and aftershocks. Techniques like Now Casting provide crucial warnings, allowing for better preparedness. Despite technological advances, predicting earthquakes remains an inexact science, but even short warnings can be beneficial.
