Scurt istoric al deducerii relațiilor actuale dintre energia seismică și magnitudine
Brief remarks on the history of deducing the current relationships between seismic energy and magnitude

Summary/Abstract: This paper aims to further develop issues related to magnitude, as a measure of earthquake strength, focusing on the relationship between magnitude and seismic energy. It also presents a brief history of the scientific activity of personalities who analysed seismic energy vs. magnitude and provided certain numerical calculations of them. They also established well-known magnitude scales: Richter and the seismic moment.
