GeoCosmo EARTHQUAKE FORECAST SYSTEM
2
THE GEOCOSMO EARTHQUAKE FORECAST SYSTEM WILL FORECAST THE LIKELIHOOD OF MAJOR EARTHQUAKES
WITH 2 -3 DAYS OF LEAD TIME.
A forecast could save thousands of lives and billions of dollars.
We are gathering an alliance of scientists, corporations, aid organizations, governments, and concerned citizens who will support the development of GeoCosmo, the
global earthquake forecast system.

EARTHQUAKES ARE THE MOST DEADLY OF ALL NATURAL DISASTERS...AND DEVASTATINGLY COSTLY
4
2010 Haiti
230,000Casualties
$13 Billion in Damage
2011 Japan
13,000Casualties
$122 Billion in Damage
1989San Francisco Bay Area
63Casualties
$6 Billion in Damage
5
THE GEOCOSMO SYSTEM WILL FORECAST EARTHQUAKES WITH ENOUGH LEAD TIME TO MINIMIZE DAMAGE

VS.
The existing “Early Warning System” is nothing more than an
“announcing system” for earthquakes that are already underway
0 - 90 SECONDS
The GeoCosmo System gives us the time we need to
protect people and property
2-3 DAYS
OUR METHOD PROVIDES ADVANCED WARNING THAT ISNOT AVAILABLE THROUGH EXISTING TECHNIQUES
7
HOW GeoCosmo WORKS
Deep in the earth as rocks are squeezed, they produce electricity
8
Infrared Anomalies
Radio Noise
Air Ionization
AS THE ELECTRICITY TRAVELS, IT CREATES MEASURABLE EFFECTS
Magnetic field anomalies
ULF emissions
Unipolar pulses
Ground potentials
Ozone Production
Ionospheric Perturbations
9
EACH EFFECT CAN BE DETECTED BYSATELLITES AND GROUND STATIONS
10
All the signals are weighted, evaluated and combined to create a forecast for the next earthquake.
With a 2-3 day warning, thousands of lives and billions of dollars could be saved.
