Resumo

The observation of direct current (DC)/ultra‐low frequency (ULF) electromagnetic emissions at Nakatsugawa, Gifu, Japan, has indicated that ULF emissions in the frequency below 0.1 Hz took place about 3–10 days before the disastrous Sumatra, Indonesia, earthquake. The most important support to this is based on the goniometric direction finding for those ULF emissions during the period of 17–23 December, which indicates their azimuth angle being very close to the epicentre of the earthquake. So, these ULF emissions between 17–23 December are likely to be associated with the earthquake.
