Summary Values of the parameterb in the frequency-magnitude relation for seismic sequences, determined by several methods, show a systematic variation of this parameter with the magnitude range. When the difference in magnitude between the largest and smallest earthquake of a complete sequence is larger than about 1.4 this variation is not, as a rule, significant and a value of this parameter can be determined from the cumulative distribution with considerable confidence.
