Can scientists predict earthquakes?
Earthquake Prediction
Scientists can not accurately predict when earthquakes will happen. Progress in recent decades, however, allows them to predict the probability of a quake occurring on a particular fault line.
Scientists gather data concerning activity on fault lines in recent history and can now come up with a prediction of a quake happening within the next few decades. While that doesn't seem to mean a lot when it comes to saving lives, it does allow the "target areas" to at least be prepared with education about dealing with the steps to take when the quake actually hits.
