Abstract

Natural disasters are events of great impact, impossible to avoid. It's up to us humans and inhabitants of this "small" ball do everything in our power to minimize their consequences, both with regard to human victims, as the economic and material losses. With the advancement in technology it is possible today to predict the appearance of a phenomenon of this type in a few seconds, avoiding a catastrophe on a larger scale. The development of warning tools has become an important aid in the prediction of earthquakes.
