What is the difference between earthquake early warning and earthquake prediction?

We know that in today's era of scientific and technological development, our people's science and technology are more and more developed, and the alarm and early warning of some natural phenomena are more and more accurate, especially our weather forecast. This is especially true in our efforts. We watch the weather forecast through our mobile phones every day, and we can know a change in the weather and make adjustments in time. So is the earthquake, so what is the difference between earthquake early warning and earthquake prediction? What's the difference between them?

First, about earthquake early warning. The first one is about earthquake early warning, which is to give us a warning, that is, to warn us that an earthquake is about to happen. Because we know that the power, training time and rapidity of earthquakes are far greater than other natural disasters, when earthquakes occur, many of us may sleep at home or work in the workplace. For example, the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 happened to be around 2 pm. During that time, people just took a nap at home. In hot summer, they are tired from work during the day, so it is normal to take a nap. It is this situation that caused 654.38+10,000 casualties in this earthquake. Earthquake early warning is an alarm for our residents to evacuate in time.

Second, the role of earthquake prediction. Also, knowing the earthquake forecast about 1~2 days in advance is similar to our weather forecast, and its purpose is to let us know that there may be an earthquake in this area in the near future. According to this situation, we make timely adjustments, do a good job in our daily travel and do a good job in earthquake early warning, which is also a measure to protect the safety of our personnel.

Third, there is earthquake prediction first, and then there is earthquake warning. Finally, there is a sequence between the two. There is earthquake prediction first, and then there is earthquake warning. Earthquake prediction is to let us know the probability of earthquakes in this area, and earthquake early warning is to evacuate people in this area in time.
