A logarithmic scale that measures the amount of energy released during an earthquake on the basis of the amplitude of the highest peak recorded on a seismogram. Each unit increase in the Richter scale represents a 10-fold increase in the amplitude recorded on the seismogram and a 30-fold increase in energy released by the earthquake. Theoretic...

Quantitative scale of earthquake magnitude based on the measurement of seismic waves, used to indicate the magnitude of an earthquake at its epicentre. The Richter scale is logarithmic, so an earthquake of 6.0 is ten times greater than one of 5.0. The magnitude of an earthquake differs from its intensity, measured by the Mercalli scale, which is qu...
