[2] Importantly, Coulomb stress changes have been applied to earthquake-forecasting models that have been used to assess potential hazards related to earthquake activity.
[1] Another successful case study of earthquake prediction occurred along Turkey's North Anatolian fault system.
[3][4] This method has been also used to predict seismicity around active volcanoes submitted to significant variation of stress in the magma chamber.
As an example, the last of the previous thirteen earthquakes along Turkey's North Anatolian Fault, near the town of Duzce, was successfully predicted by local geologists before the rupture occurred.
[2] Scientists estimate that the probability of another earthquake along the Anatolian fault system is 62% over the next 30 years and will be located threateningly close to Istanbul.
