Abstract
Recent studies have suggested that variation of the total ozone content may be a precursor tool for earthquake forecasts. The main aim of this analysis is to examine whether the total ozone variability before and after the eight large earthquakes (M w ≥ 6.0) of the decade 2001–2010 in Greece could be related with these earthquake events. The results clearly show that the association of total ozone fluctuation with earthquake occurrence in the time window of 2 weeks before and after each of these large earthquake events is not statistically significant.
