Is there any anomaly change of the electron density in the ionosphere before Taiwan earthquakes? The electron density on Taiwan’s magnetic latitude is known to be the maximum on the earth especially during the afternoon period (Chen et al., 2000, PCE). A study of its daily variation further reveals that the electron density on Taiwan is relatively stable to reach its maximum during the afternoon period (Liu, Chen and Lin, 2003, JGR). A statistical detection of the anomaly before Taiwan earthquakes shows that an extraordinary decrease in the electron density majorly occurs post noon (Liu and Chen et al., 2001, JGR). Applying the statistical detection to the historical data finds that the probability of such a electron density anomaly is enhanced especially when the effect of magnetic storms is removed. In fact, a statistical analysis concludes that Taiwan’s earthquakes of larger magnitude is more likely to experience the anomaly and the earthquakes closer to the ionosonde station has a better chance to be recognized ahead of time. These statistical results have shed light into the study of searching for earthquake precursors.
