Statistical relation between earthquakes and radiation dose increments at the radiation monitoring post

Abstract

. We have investigated the relationship between electromagnetic phenomena and earthquakes based on statistical analysis. In order to make a prediction of earthquake, we have to find out any relationship between electromagnetic phenomena and earthquakes. This paper was intended to find out any relation between radiation dose increments and occurrences of earthquakes. At this time, we chose five monitoring points in Kanto area and gave a quantitative rating by means of Molchan’s error diagram for statistical validity. As a result, we could find the strong relationship between radiation dose increments and occurrences of earthquakes in some monitoring points.
