Abstract

In this paper the irregularities of the dilatation function, in terms of which the occurrence of the gravitational field was interpreted by Selak (1978), were taken to be a cause of the earthquake phenomena. On this basis we attempted to support an empirical relation of Tsubokawa (stated by Rikitake, 1972) expressing the way in which the time-interval of anomalous land deformation depends on the magnitude of the earthquake. Besides this, we suggest a way in which the earthquake prediction could be performed.
