Which procedure is used in short-term predictions of earthquakes?
A) measurements of coastal marsh sediments near subduction zones
B) measurements of changes in the land surface near an active fault zone
C) monitoring of P wave formation
D) monitoring of tidal wave formation

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Measurements of changes in the land surface near an active fault zone are used for short-term earthquake predictions. This involves monitoring movements of the Earth's crust near the fault zone to detect any potential activity. The other options listed are not directly related to short-term earthquake prediction methods.
