Wat (wie) is PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale - definitie


PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale         
EARTHQUAKE INTENSITY SCALE USED IN THE PHILIPPINES
PEIS
The PHIVOLCS Earthquake Intensity Scale (PEIS) is a seismic scale used and developed by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (PHIVOLCS) to measure the intensity of earthquakes.
Seismic magnitude scales         
  • Typical seismogram. The compressive [[P-waves]] (following the red lines) – essentially sound passing through rock – are the fastest seismic waves, and arrive first, typically in about 10 seconds for an earthquake around 50 km away. The sideways-shaking [[S-waves]] (following the green lines) arrive some seconds later, traveling a little over half the speed of the P-waves; the delay is a direct indication of the distance to the quake. S-waves may take an hour to reach a point 1000 km away. Both of these are ''body-waves'', that pass directly through the earth's crust. Following the S-waves are various kinds of ''surface-waves'' – [[Love wave]]s and [[Rayleigh wave]]s – that travel only at the earth's surface. Surface waves are smaller for deep earthquakes, which have less interaction with the surface. For shallow earthquakes – less than roughly 60 km deep – the surface waves are stronger, and may last several minutes; these carry most of the energy of the quake, and cause the most severe damage.

Seismic magnitude scales are used to describe the overall strength or "size" of an earthquake. These are distinguished from seismic intensity scales that categorize the intensity or severity of ground shaking (quaking) caused by an earthquake at a given location.
Richter scale         
  • [[Charles Francis Richter]] (circa 1970)

How Richter Magnitude Scale is determined - the larger the value on the log graph, the higher the damage caused.
