When I started my PhD in seismology in 2013, the very topic of earthquake prediction was deemed unserious, as outside the realm of mainstream research as the hunt for the Loch Ness Monster.

Almost like aftershocks, questions about earthquake prediction tend to follow disasters like the Feb. 6, 2023, Turkey-Syria quake. Could advance notice have prevented some of the devastation?

But unlike weather forecasting — which has been improved by computing power, mathematical models and the rise of drones and satellites — the quality of earthquake prediction has lagged.
