Abstract:
Central Italy was hit by several strong earthquakes in 2016-2017. 24 August, 26&30 Oct 2016 and 18 January 2017. All of those earthquakes were triggered by fast coronal holes streams with velocities 500-700 km/s. Those solar wind streams imitated auroras and magnetic storms. We suggest that telluric electric currents are induced within the earth and cause the plates to move, collide or sub duct triggering earthquakes particularly in points of weakness. The very weak solar cycle number 24 was rich in coronal holes. Such coronal holes with open magnetic lines of force allow fast solar wind streams to escape the sun; hence very strong earthquakes were common worldwide. The south magnetic pole has moved recently from Canada to Siberia thus scientists are expecting the sun to rise from the west in the near future. They claim that strong earthquakes can make such a reversal day nearer.
