moment magnitude

in particular, for very large earthquakes moment magnitude gives the most reliable estimate of earthquake size.

尤其是对于特别重大的地震，“矩震级”能够确定出最为可信的地震规模。

the moment magnitude is the most common scale on which earthquakes larger than approximately 5 are reported for the entire globe.

这是最常见的矩震级的地震规模上大于大约5所报道的上述产品销往全球。

The moment magnitude scale measures the total energy released in an earthquake and it describes large earthquakes more accurately than does the Richter scale.

力矩量级可以测量地震释放的总能量，并且用它来描述大地震比用里氏震级要精确得多。

The largest earthquake ever recorded on the moment magnitude scale measured 9.5.

曾经被记录的用力矩震级描述的最大的地震是9.5级。
