Popis: To better characterize seismic hazard, particularly, for induced seismicity, there is an increasing interest in methods to estimate moment magnitude (Mw) for small earthquakes. Mw is generally preferred over other magnitude types, but, it is difficult to estimate Mw for earthquakes with local magnitude (ML)
