15、ncreases in underground pressure came before earthquakes along Californias San Andreas Fault by as much as 10 hoursIf followup tests confirm these findings，seismologists may eventually be able to provide a few hours notice for people to find a safe place before quakes“Predicting earthquakes is the f
16、inal goal for seismologists，” says Fenglin Niu，the research teams lead author and a Rice University seismologist“This is a start” The research team theorizes that the immense amount of pressure building along the Fault causes small cracks within the rock during the final hours before an earthquake，w
