Difference between 2011 Christchurch earthquake and Moment magnitude scale

2011 Christchurch earthquake vs. Moment magnitude scale

A major earthquake occurred in Christchurch on Tuesday 22 February 2011 at 12:51 p.m. local time (23:51 UTC, 21 February). The moment magnitude scale (MMS; denoted explicitly with M or or Mwg, and generally implied with use of a single M for magnitude) is a measure of an earthquake's magnitude ("size" or strength) based on its seismic moment.

Similarities between 2011 Christchurch earthquake and Moment magnitude scale

2011 Christchurch earthquake and Moment magnitude scale have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Richter scale, United States Geological Survey.

Richter scale

The Richter scale, also called the Richter magnitude scale, Richter's magnitude scale, and the Gutenberg–Richter scale, is a measure of the strength of earthquakes, developed by Charles Richter in collaboration with Beno Gutenberg, and presented in Richter's landmark 1935 paper, where he called it the "magnitude scale".
