A successfully stress-forecast earthquake

A M = 5 earthquake in Iceland has been successfully ‘stress forecast’ by using variations in time delays of seismic shear wave splitting to assess the time and magnitude at which stress-modified microcracking reaches fracture criticality within the stressed volume where strain is released. Local inv...
