Scientific paper

A relationship is presently established between large earthquakes and the earth's tides and external geomagnetic fields, in conjunction with a triggering mechanism having its bases in the large solar and lunar variations observed during a number of the shocks examined. A majority of these shocks are noted to be located within a latitude-belt which coincides with the intensity maximum of ionospheric currents. A local magnetostriction process in the rocks appears to be the triggering mechanism. The large number of earthquakes occurring during maximum solar activity may be related to the enhanced geomagnetic triggering effect of higher sunspot numbers.
