Abstract
This paper uses amplitude and perioddata of long waves, culled from station bulletins, andthe Prague formula to make uniform reappraisals ofsurface-wave magnitudes MS of events in Greeceand adjacent regions between 1901 and 1993. We findthat station and distance corrections of MS areimportant only for relatively small events or forpoorly observed larger shocks. Also that MSestimates in earthquake catalogues for Greece areoverestimated by 0.2 to 0.6 magnitude units, withoccasional larger discrepancies for subcrustalevents.
