A professor at UC Davis and his team came up with a model to predict earthquakes, and, since they published their forecast in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in 2002, have been right 15 out of 16 times. Their working theory is that in areas where there has been a steady stream of small quakes all along, if the small quakes either stop or start suddenly, that area is a Hot Spot that will be likely to experience a moderate-to-large earthquake in the next 10 years.
