Richter magnitude scale Richter correlation tables based on Richter standard seismic event (formula_26, formula_27, formula_28). Below, formula_29 is the epicentral distance (in kilometers unless otherwise specified). The Lillie empirical formula: Where formula_31 is the amplitude (maximum ground displacement) of the P-wave, in micrometers, measured at 0.8 Hz. For distances formula_32 less than 200 km, and for distances between 200 km and 600 km, where formula_31 is seismograph signal amplitude in mm and formula_32 is in km. The Bisztricsany (1958) empirical formula for epicentral distances between 4˚ to 160˚: Where formula_38 is the duration of the surface wave in seconds, and formula_39 is in
Frankston, Victoria in or near the suburb of Frankston have occurred in 1932, 1978, 1980, 2009 and 2014. The most recent, on 15 March 2014, measured 2.2 on the Richter magnitude scale. The largest, on 22 September 2009, measured 3.0 on the Richter scale. Olivers Hill is the most prominent elevation in Frankston which rises to 55 metres above sea level (180 feet) at its highest point in the suburb. Its origins date to approximately 415 to 360 million years ago. Its base is Mount Eliza Granite dating from the Devonian period, which was covered in lava tuffs in the Paleogene period.
