N2  - It has been seen that the period of solar activity and its cycle has a decrease of seismic activity in the compression zone of the Earth. In addition, at the same time there is an increase of the activity in the tension zones of the Earth. This study has been emphasized on last 45 years (i.e. 1960-2005) cyclic data in term of the number of seismic and sunspots activities. The high correlation between sunspot and earthquakes shows that there is long-term forecast for the earthquakes mainly in Iran, Japan and USA in and after 2010. The next maximum of seismic activities and earthquakes with very high amplitude for the tension zones on the Earth has forecasted for the period 2012-2013 mainly in the night. This has been alarming for the countries that fall within the seismic region such as Iran, Japan, USA etc. and if the Governments do not make the infrastructure strengthen, there may be more disasters and loss of life and properties in future.<p />
