Machine learning for predicting earthquake magnitudes in the Central Himalaya by Ram Krishna Tiwari, Rudra Prasad Poudel, Harihar Paudyal

“…In this work, Random Forest Regressor (RFR), Multi-Layer Perceptron Regressor(MLPR), and Support Vector Regression (SVR) models were employed to predict the magnitude of greater than 6 mb earthquakes that occurred in the year 2015 in the central Himalaya. We noticed RFR method had been able to predict the magnitude of the Gorkha earthquake (6.9mb), and the Kodariearthquake (6.7 mb) in comparison with the other two models. …”

“…Rather, detours are a common phenomenon in response to availability of foraging habitats, generic wind patterns, predation risk, and ecological barriers. The Himalayas are a formidable ecological barrier within the Central Asian Flyway (CAF), but hitherto research has focused on high-altitude flights of species that cross the Himalayas, and thus information on species that circumvent this mountain range is lacking in this understudied migration system. …”
