On The Correlation Between Solar Activity And Large Earthquakes Worldwide - Nature

Earthquakes aren't predictable if scientists solely look for telluric explanations, but Vito Marchitelli, Paolo Harabaglia, Claudia Troise, and Giuseppe De Natale bucked that trend with provocative conclusions in a recently published paper. As always correlation does not imply causation, but the science appears to be pretty sound. To riff on these findings, what if earthquake lights are highly-localized aurorae rather than triboluminesence writ large? Upping the ante on the strange, a theory of a sun-earth connection to earthquakes isn't particularly new. (CS)
