Satellite Data Reveals Magnetic Clues Before Major Myanmar Earthquake
Researchers have identified distinctive magnetic field anomalies in satellite data up to eight days before the devastating 2025 Myanmar earthquake. The study suggests these electromagnetic signals could contribute to future short-term earthquake forecasting systems.
Pre-Earthquake Magnetic Signals Detected
Scientists have uncovered magnetic field anomalies that appeared days before the devastating Mw7.7 earthquake that struck Myanmar on March 28, 2025, according to a new study published in Scientific Reports. The research team analyzed data from the European Space Agency’s Swarm satellite constellation, which revealed detectable disturbances in the Earth’s magnetic field beginning up to eight days before the seismic event that killed over 5,000 people.
