New study warns of potential major quake near San Andreas Fault, but Dr. Lucy Jones cautions against overestimation. Research indicates seismic activity near Parkfield could signal an upcoming earthquake, yet Jones urges cautious interpretation, noting the remote location minimizes direct impact risks. #EarthquakeStudy #SanAndreasFault #SeismicActivity https://lnkd.in/deNykHh5

New research suggests that a distinct signal before an earthquake may occur in a section of the San Andreas fault known as Parkfield, raising the possibility of an imminent quake. This fault segment, which shakes about every 22 years, could provide valuable insights into predicting earthquakes, potentially saving lives. #SanAndreasFault #EarthquakePrediction #ParkfieldFault #earthquakes https://lnkd.in/g8uWYfYT
