No, the Richter scale is a logarithmic scale that starts at zero and has no downward limit. Earthquakes cannot have negative magnitudes on the Richter scale.
PAGASA (Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration) uses the Richter scale to measure the intensity of earthquakes. This scale is a logarithmic scale that quantifies the energy released by an earthquake.
Earthquake
The richter scale is used by scientists to measure the amount of energy release by an earthquake.
The Richter magnitude scale is used to measure the strength of an earthquake.
The Haiti earthquake in 2010 had a magnitude of 7.0 on the Richter scale.
The scale used to measure the strength of an earthquake is called the Richter scale
No. The Richter's scale measures the magnitude or intensity of an earthquake on a scale up to ten.
The Haiti earthquake measured around 7.0 on the Richter Scale.

Charles Richter made it so it can measure the size of an earthquake.
