ABSTRACT

USA scientists found a 22-year cycle in Parkfield earthquake sequence, and they predicted that the next quake would come in 1988 ± 5 with 95% possibility, while the quake happened in 2004, which is 11 years later than the prediction. Here, we reanalyze the Parkfield earthquake sequence, and find 11-year cycle; multiple 11-year cycle and Fibonacci sequence existed for earthquake. With these methods, the 2004 earthquake can be predicted well. We also predict that the next earthquake may occur in 2031-2032.
