文摘In this paper, geoelectrical field anomalies at Changli and Xingji station in Hebei Province were analyzed before five remote earthquakes. It was found that the anomalies mainly occurred two or three months before earthquakes, which is of importance to short-term and impendent earthquake prediction.
