Abstract
This paper looks at the bases for the cited depth‐distance corrections by Guust Nolet, Steve Krueger, and Robert M. Clouser (Paper 98GL01094, GRL, Vol. 25, No. 9, pp. 1451–1454, May 1, 1998), the historic curves of Gutenberg and Richter, and those given by Veith and Clawson (1972). It discusses the some of the problems associated with the establishment of such curves and suggests modes of strengthening both the current work and potential future work.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
