Magnitude and intensity: Measures of earthquake size and severity Earthquakes can be measured in terms of either the amount of energy they release (magnitude) or the degree of ground shaking they cause at a particular loc... H Spall 被引量: 0发表: 1982年 Exercise after-burn: a research upd...
What is the main reason for the high intensity of the Kobe earthquake? Kobe Earthquake: On January 17, 1995, the Kobe earthquake (also called the Great Hanshin earthquake) destroyed significant parts of Kobe. It differed from most other Japanese earthquakes. ...
What geological conditions influence the intensity of an earthquake? What is MRC for seismic analysis? What are earthquake-proof buildings made of? What is the medium of earthquake waves? What is a tectonic hazard? What geologic structures are associated with earthquakes?

Intensity (astronomy) radiance. Strength The ability to deal with difficult situations or to maintain a moral or intellectual position Does he have the strength to overcome such a tragedy?. Intensity (geology) The severity of an earthquake in terms of its effects on the earth's surface, and ...
The energy released from the fault line travel through the earth in various directions and causes a sudden tremor to the planet. This energy is known as seismic waves which are the result of the earthquake. The Richter scale measures the magnitude and intensity of an earthquake. An Earthquake ...
In spite of extensive research and sophisticated equipment, it is impossible to predict an earthquake, although experts can estimate the likelihood of an earthquake occurring in a particular region. In 1935, American seismologist (地震学家) Charles Richter developed a scale that measures the magnitude...
Japanese Earthquake Scale In addition to the magnitude scale with which many travelers are familiar, Japan also uses a10-step intensity scale. This scale will help you to understand the intensity of the shaking felt at a given location.

Earthquakes are recorded bya seismographic network. Each seismic station in the network measures the movement of the ground at that site. The slip of one block of rock over another in an earthquake releases energy that makes the ground vibrate. ...
