Abstract

The appearance of the Indian plate linearly extended cloud anomalies over Bay of Bengal and the development of a powerful storm cloud over the future of the epicenter at the foot of the Himalayas; followed by the formation of it geologically conditioned linear anomalies confirmed their value as a short-term precursor of the time and place of a strong earthquake in the region. The effect of the seismic process on the satellite image quality was shown.
