Although the pre-quake "emanations" created an unusual signature in the ionosphere, I cannot find
any references that this phenomena is being actively researched.

I need to correct that statement and say it is being actively researched.

Quote:
Strange animal behavior before earthquakes and the so-called earthquake lights seen in conjunction
with earthquakes was relegated to the pseudo-sciences (they were not observed using scientifically
trained observers nor were rigorous scientific methods utilized) and were not seriously investigated
by the academics who made their livings in the geologic sciences.
