From the study of [1] and the relation between local magnitude and seismic signal duration, was performed a data analysis obtained in the same region, on the period between October/2007 and June/2008, in which we can estimate the equation MD = 2.153 (±0.072) LogD – 1.925 (±0.132) to calculate the magnitude of local duration. We can also estimate one value for the b parameter using the equation LogN = a – bMD from a frequency-magnitude study. It was found the value of b = 0.826 (±0.020) for the general activity of Itacarambi, MG, that is within the universal range proposed by [2].展开更多
