The earthquake which occurred in the North Eastern part of Japan on Thursday night was correctly predicted by Prof Athula Senaratne of the Peradeniya University Geology Department.

Dr. Senaratne made the prediction following a series of experiments carried out by a team of geologists led by him at the university.

He predicted that an earthquake over five points on the Richter scale will occur in Japan between April 5 and 8. His prediction appeared in our sister paper Dinamina on April 4.


More earthquakes shortly: Likely impact on South Asia

With another earthquake in the offing, in the Indonesian region between April 10 and 18, as predicted by Professor Athula Senaratne of the Geological Department, Peradeniya University, and, if it happens in the shallow sea waters around 10 km in depth the impact is very likely to be felt to the South Asian region warned Prof, Senaratne.

Professor Senaratne has so far made correct predictions on future earthquakes and Tsunami situations.

Yesterday’s earthquake in Japan was the latest of his predictions to turn into reality.

He has predicted 3 more earthquakes with the next to occur in the Indonesian region between April 10 and 18.

According to him, five earthquakes are on the cards in the month of April. The countries likely to be hit are China, Indonesia, Turkey and Iran not ruling out Japan again.

The Disaster Management Centre and the National Tsunami Warning Centre in Sri Lanka are on the alert to face any such situation. The public around the coastal belt of Sri Lanka are also requested to be cautious within the period of April 10 to April 18, Prof. Senaratne noted.

The public are requested to remain calm and alert during April 10 and 18.


Five earthquakes in coming days!

There is a possibility of 05 earthquakes in the world during April, Professor Athula Senarathne of the Peradeniya Geological Department told Lankapuvath.

Analyzing all earthquakes that occurred in the world, the predictions were made that between April 03 and 10 that there could be an earthquake in the areas of Japan, between April 06 and 10 in China, in the Indian ocean coast, April 10 to 15 in Indonesia, April 10-15 in Turkey and Iran area and fro, April 16-20 in the Pacific region.

The predictions made by the Professor on earthquakes in the month of March were accurate. A calendar on earthquakes and its occurrence would be prepared in future if the predictions in future are successful, added Professor Senarathne.


Be cautious next week

The public have been advised to remain cautious between April 10 and 18 as a professor of the Peradeniya University has “predicted” an earthquake may occur in the Indonesian region during that period which may affect South Asia as well.

Professor Athula Senaratne of the Geological Department at the Peradeniya University has said that if the quake occurs in shallow sea waters around 10 km in depth then a tsunami could be generated and that may have an impact on South Asia, a State news agency said.

The Lankapuvath news agency said that Professor Senaratne has so far made correct predictions on future earthquakes and Tsunami situations and yesterday’s earthquake in Japan was the latest of his predictions to be correct.

He has predicted that three more earthquakes may occur in the Indonesian region between April 10 and 18 and overall five earthquakes are on the cards in the month of April. The countries likely to be hit are China, Indonesia, Turkey, Iran and Japan.

Lankapuvath also said that the Disaster Management Centre and the National Tsunami Warning Centre in Sri Lanka are on the alert to face any tsunami situation.

Earthquake Prediction - Sri Lankan Scientists Successfully Predict New Zealand & Japan Earthquakes. Discovery Linked to Planetary Configuration

By Rukshana Rizwie, www.nation.lk

Scientists at the University of Peradeniya who have been studying the occurrences of earthquakes around the world could possibly hold the key to predicting the next big quake.

The scientists have been able to find a significant relationship with the planetary configuration and some of the major earthquakes that have taken place, including the recent 6.3 earthquake that rocked Christchurch in New Zealand.

Almost Every Quake Prediction Made in March Came True

“We predicted according to our research and studies that there was to be an earthquake in New Zealand on February 22 and it occurred,” said Professor Athula Senaratne at the University.

“Almost every quake that we predicted to occur during the month of March did take place,” he said.

BBC Ignored Predictions that Came True

According to him, the university presented its findings long before the quake hit Christchurch in New Zealand. He also added that the findings and predications were forwarded to the BBC, but was not responded to.

“The university is in the process of finalising their predictions for the month of April, and plans to have it released to the public by the first week of April,” He added.

The university will also go public with their findings. When asked of any threat to Sri Lanka during the course of this year, the professor added that earthquakes were a rare occurrence in Sri Lanka, but it was to take place in the Indian Ocean, the threat of a Tsunami were imminent and plausible.”

Consistent Co-relation of Earthquakes & Planetary Configurations Show a Delay of Only a Day or Two

The scientists at the university studied over 136 earthquakes that measured over 6 in magnitude on the Richter scale. “We studied the co-relation of the quakes with solar and lunar eclipse as well as movements of the moon. We didn’t find a consistency hence we proceeded to map out the planetary configuration and their movements as well. We were then able to swiftly connect the dots to the configuration and the quakes,” he said.

The professor added that there is a valid and concrete consistency between the configuration of the planets to the quakes with a delay of only a day or two. “When there is a special arrangements of the plants, we have found that there have been several occurrences of earthquakes, many of which we predicted came true,” he observed.
