Hutton-Boore local magnitude: nanometre to millimetre scale · case 02
Magnitudes are three units too large.
Case contract
Input the Wood-Anderson peak-to-peak amplitude in nm, epicentral distance and depth in km. Non-positive amplitude returns None. A (mm, zero-to-peak) = p2p/2 * 1e-6; r = hypocentral distance; ML = log10(A) + 1.11 log10(r/100) + 0.00189 (r - 100) + 3.0, rounded to 0.01.
Why this case matters
Regional networks publish ML for most small and moderate earthquakes.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| 150 nm p2p at 0 km (depth 8) | 0.48 | -2.52 | Failed |
