Abstract
It is shown that a new definition of M L SM (Trifunac 14), which is computed from recorded strong motion earthquake accelerograms, leads to stable and unbiased estimates of the local earthquake magnitude M L (Richter 8) for epicentral distance R < 100 km and for 3 M nL < 6.5. Tables of the uniform estimates using this new M L SM are presented for all earthquakes contributing to the current data base of free field strong motion accelerograms in EQINFOS files (Lee and Trifunac 6).
