On 8 May 2024, the solar active region AR13664 started releasing a series of intense flares. Those class X released between 9 and 11 2024 gave rise to chain fast Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) that proved be geoeffective.

Abstract A cumulative frequency-magnitude relation, the Gutenberg–Richter law, dominates statistics of occurrence earthquakes. Although it is an empirical some authors have tried to give physical meaning its a and b parameters. Here, we recall theoretical expressions for probability earthquake with magnitude M in terms values. direct consequence maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) entropy principle (MEP) that values can be expressed as function mean seismic sequence over certain area.

Abstract The geomagnetic storm that occurred on 25 August 2018, is, during the minimum of solar cycle 24, is currently strongest ever probed by first China Seismo‐Electromagnetic Satellite (CSES‐01). By integrating in situ measurements provided CSES‐01 (orbiting at altitude 507 km) and Swarm A satellite ca., 460 with ground‐based observations (ionosondes, magnetometers, Global Navigation System receivers), we investigate ionospheric response lower‐ mid‐latitudes over Brazil. Specifically,...
Nowadays, the possibility that medium-large earthquakes could produce some electromagnetic ionospheric disturbances during their preparatory phase is controversial in scientific community. Some previous works using satellite data from DEMETER, Swarm and, recently, CSES provided several pieces of evidence supporting existence such precursory phenomena terms single case studies and statical analyses. In this work, we applied a Worldwide Statistical Correlation approach to M5.5+ shallow first 8...
We analyse Swarm satellite magnetic field and electron density data one month before after 12 strong earthquakes that have occurred in the first 2.5 years of mission lifetime Mediterranean region (magnitude M6.1+) or rest world (M6.7+). The search for anomalies was limited to area centred at each earthquake epicentre bounded by a circle scales with magnitude according Dobrovolsky’s radius. define statistically terms specific thresholds respect same statistical quantity along whole residual...
This work deals with a comprehensive multiparametric and multilayer approach to study earthquake-related processes that occur during the preparation phase of large earthquake. As case study, paper investigates M7.2 Kermadec Islands (New Zealand) earthquake occurred on June 15, 2019 as result shallow reverse faulting within Tonga-Kermadec subduction zone. The analyses focused seismic (earthquake catalogs), atmospheric (climatological archives) ionospheric data from ground space (mainly...
On 6 February 2023, Turkey experienced its most powerful earthquake in over 80 years, with a moment magnitude (Mw) of 7.7. This was then followed by second Mw 7.6 just nine hours later. According to the lithosphere–atmosphere–ionosphere coupling (LAIC) models, such significant seismic activity is expected cause anomalies across various observables, from Earth’s surface ionosphere. multidisciplinary study investigates preparatory phase these two major earthquakes identifying potential...
Due to the significant earthquake-related perturbations observed in ionosphere by ground-based stations and space-borne satellites, scientists have increasingly focused on studying possible mechanisms of lithosphere, atmosphere coupling (LAIC) before during strong earthquakes. In this work, we contribute research, analyzing phase preparation 2022 Ms6.8 Luding (China) earthquake with a multi-parameter multi-layer approach from ground satellite data taken ionosphere, including b-value, revised...
Earthquakes are the most energetic phenomena in lithosphere: their study and comprehension greatly worth doing because of obvious importance for society. Geosystemics intends to Earth system as a whole, looking at possible couplings among different geo-layers, i.e., from earth’s interior above atmosphere. It uses specific universal tools integrate methods that can be applied multi-parameter data, often taken on platforms (e.g., ground, marine or satellite observations). Its main objective is...
The 2019 M7.1 Ridgecrest earthquake was the strongest one in last 20 years California (United States). In a multiparametric fashion, we collected data from lithosphere (seismicity), atmosphere (temperature, water vapor, aerosol, and methane), ionosphere (ionospheric parameters ionosonde, electron density, magnetic field satellites). We analyzed order to identify possible anomalies that cannot be explained by typical physics of each domain study can likely attributed...

On 20 December 2021, after six quiet years, the Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha’apai volcano erupted abruptly. Then, on 15 January 2022, largest eruption produced a plume well registered from satellites and destroyed volcanic cone previously formed in 2015, connecting two islands. We applied multi-parametric multi-layer study to investigate all possible pre-eruption signals effects of this activity lithosphere, atmosphere, ionosphere. focused our attention on: (a) seismological features considering...
Earthquake prediction is one of the most challenging enterprises science. Any system must be based on search for a precursor appearing during preparation phase an earthquake in ground, atmosphere, or ionosphere that can anticipate its occurrence. We present methods to detect potential pre-earthquake anomalies. In particular, we show analysis lithospheric, atmospheric, and ionospheric data detection anomalies under specific criteria. When apply these retrospectively, find their accuracy goes...
