Sentence examples for magnitude zero from inspiring English sources

In one sense, we can think of the full and a reduced system as two systems with partially shared stochastic input, and partially independent stochastic input of different magnitudes (magnitude zero, in one case).

If the actual threshold for lower magnitude, usually constrained by the magnitude level where seismic monitoring provides complete observations, is different, the fault density can easily be scaled from magnitude zero with the Gutenberg/Richter distribution.

The product of background seismicity rate (=number of earthquakes per unit time and unit volume with magnitudes larger than 0) and cycle time is the number of all earthquakes that can occur in the volume, which in turn is the number of all seismogenic faults with potential of earthquakes larger than magnitude zero.

To standardize the magnitude scale, astronomers chose Vega to represent magnitude zero at all wavelengths.

However, this is no longer the case, as the apparent magnitude zero point is now commonly defined in terms of a particular numerically specified flux.

So a magnitude nine event is 900 times as powerful as a magnitude seven event.

How come a magnitude nine event is so much worse than a magnitude seven event?

A magnitude three event is 30 times as powerful as a magnitude two event, and so on.

It is called a power law, and in this case it means that for every 1,000 earthquakes of magnitude five there are roughly 100 earthquakes of magnitude six, 10 of magnitude seven, and so on.

Strong aftershocks shook northern Chile every few minutes early Wednesday, some measuring above magnitude six.

Strong aftershocks shook northern Chile every few minutes throughout early Wednesday, some measuring above magnitude six.
