Seismic scale

A seismic scale is used to calculate and compare the severity of earthquakes.

Two fundamentally different but equally important types of scales are commonly used by seismologists to describe earthquakes. The original force or energy of an earthquake is measured on a magnitude scale, while the intensity of shaking occurring at any given point on the Earth's surface is measured on an intensity scale.

Magnitude and intensity

The severity of an earthquake is described by both magnitude and intensity. These two frequently confused terms refer to different, but related, expressions. Magnitude, usually expressed as an Arabic numeral characterizes the size of an earthquake by measuring indirectly the energy released. By contrast, intensity indicates the local effects and potential for damage produced by an earthquake on the Earth's surface as it affects humans, animals, structures, and natural objects such as bodies of water. Intensities are usually expressed in Roman numerals, and represent the severity of the shaking resulting from an earthquake. Ideally, any given earthquake can be described by only one magnitude, but many intensities since the earthquake effects vary with circumstances such as distance from the epicenter and local soil conditions. In practice, the same earthquake might have magnitude estimates typically differing by few tenths of a unit, depending on which magnitude scale is used and which data are included in the analysis.

  Moment Magnitude Explained—What Happened to the Richter Scale?

  www.iris.edu/educate for more animations Scientists have developed far-more sensitive seismometers that, with faster computers, have enabled them to record & interpret a broader spectrum of seismic signals than was possible in the 1930's, when the Richter magnitude was developed. The Richter Magnitude Scale is effective for nearby earthquakes below magnitude 7, but not for larger earthquakes. The Moment Magnitude Scale uses seismograms plus what physically occurs during an earthquake (which can also be derived from seismograms), known as the "seismic moment". The seismic moment defines how much force is needed to generate the recorded waves. That information is plugged into the moment magnitude scale to give us the amount of energy that is released during an earthquake. For an interact...

  EAGE E-lecture: Evaluating The Gap Between Seismic Scale And Well Scale, by Ryan Williams

  Detecting structure at reservoir scale on seismic data has been a long-standing issue due to vertical resolution constraints. Commonly results from seismic data are downscaled or well based fracture studies are upscaled in an attempt to predict fault/fracture position. In this study, both seismic and well analysis methods were combined in a cognitive based workflow, allowing for accurate fault/fracture prediction not only at the well location, but laterally within the 3D volume.

The Central Weather Bureau is planning to change how it measures earthquake intensity. Currently the CWB uses a scale of eight levels to measure how strong an earthquake feels at a given location. As early as the end of this year, it wants to break the scale down into 10 levels, to give rescuers a more accurate picture of damage after an earthquake. Earthquakes are frequent in Taiwan. About 18,500 earthquakes occur every year, and approximately 1,000 of them are felt above ground. To allow more precise reports of earthquake damage, the CWB plans to update its seismic intensity scale, adding two levels.Chen Kuo-changSeismological Center directorThe high-intensity levels are too broad. They cover too wide a range. This might lead to low-damage areas getting mixed with high-damage areas. It could create trouble for disaster rescue teams. So in the future, we will subdivide the high-intensity levels into “strong” and “weak.” For example, 5 on the scale will be divided into Upper 5 and Lower 5. Level 6 on the scale will be divided into Upper 6 and Lower 6. The new seismic intensity scale will make it easier for disaster units to assess earthquake damage. Last year the CWB upgraded its seismic network, increasing its sampling rate from 50 a second using 16-bit resolution to 100 samples a second using 24-bit.

The Central Weather Bureau is planning to change how it measures earthquake intensity. Currently the CWB uses a scale of eight levels to measure how strong an earthquake feels at a given location. As early as the end of this year, it wants to break the scale down into 10 levels, to give rescuers a more accurate picture of damage after an earthquake. Earthquakes are frequent in Taiwan. About 18,500 earthquakes occur every year, and approximately 1,000 of them are felt above ground. To allow more precise reports of earthquake damage, the CWB plans to update its seismic intensity scale, adding two levels.Chen Kuo-changSeismological Center directorThe high-intensity levels are too broad. They cover too wide a range. This might lead to low-damage areas getting mixed with high-damage areas. It could create trouble for disaster rescue teams. So in the future, we will subdivide the high-intensity levels into “strong” and “weak.” For example, 5 on the scale will be divided into Upper 5 and Lower 5. Level 6 on the scale will be divided into Upper 6 and Lower 6. The new seismic intensity scale will make it easier for disaster units to assess earthquake damage.

Nepal has been hit by two huge earthquakes, a 7.8 and a 7.3 on the Richter Scale. What are the different ways seismologists measure earthquakes and what do these ratings mean?

www.iris.edu/educate for more animations Scientists have developed far-more sensitive seismometers that, with faster computers, have enabled them to record & interpret a broader spectrum of seismic signals than was possible in the 1930's, when the Richter magnitude was developed. The Richter Magnitude Scale is effective for nearby earthquakes below magnitude 7, but not for larger earthquakes. The Moment Magnitude Scale uses seismograms plus what physically occurs during an earthquake (which can also be derived from seismograms), known as the "seismic moment". The seismic moment defines how much force is needed to generate the recorded waves. That information is plugged into the moment magnitude scale to give us the amount of energy that is released during an earthquake.

Detecting structure at reservoir scale on seismic data has been a long-standing issue due to vertical resolution constraints. Commonly results from seismic data are downscaled or well based fracture studies are upscaled in an attempt to predict fault/fracture position. In this study, both seismic and well analysis methods were combined in a cognitive based workflow, allowing for accurate fault/fracture prediction not only at the well location, but laterally within the 3D volume.

Seismic scale

A seismic scale is used to calculate and compare the severity of earthquakes.

Two fundamentally different but equally important types of scales are commonly used by seismologists to describe earthquakes. The original force or energy of an earthquake is measured on a magnitude scale, while the intensity of shaking occurring at any given point on the Earth's surface is measured on an intensity scale.

Magnitude and intensity

The severity of an earthquake is described by both magnitude and intensity. These two frequently confused terms refer to different, but related, expressions. Magnitude, usually expressed as an Arabic numeral characterizes the size of an earthquake by measuring indirectly the energy released. By contrast, intensity indicates the local effects and potential for damage produced by an earthquake on the Earth's surface as it affects humans, animals, structures, and natural objects such as bodies of water. Intensities are usually expressed in Roman numerals, and represent the severity of the shaking resulting from an earthquake. Ideally, any given earthquake can be described by only one magnitude, but many intensities since the earthquake effects vary with circumstances such as distance from the epicenter and local soil conditions. In practice, the same earthquake might have magnitude estimates typically differing by few tenths of a unit, depending on which magnitude scale is used and which data are included in the analysis.
