The small amplitudes of surface waves for intermediate and deep-focus
earthquakes lead to too low values of the surface-wave magnitudes. On
the basis of available material, average magnitude corrections are
deduced, which increase with focal depth and amount to 0.1-0.5 for focal
depths of 50 100 km and to 0.5-0.7 for depths of 100-700 km.
