Despite its importance, earthquake magnitude is a surprisingly ambiguous concept. Here we combine analysis of a large dataset of earthquakes in the western US with synthetic experiments to understand the relation between different magnitude scales. pubs.geoscienceworld.org/ssa/tsr/articl…

This Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote clip was director Chuck Jones' one of the most favorites. He included it in his compilation of the best Road Runner gags in his 1979 "Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie".
