No. The scale you are describing is an intensity scale such as the modified Mercalli scale. The Richter scale is in fact a magnitude scale which describes the amount of energy released by an earthquake.
is an empirical measure that relates wind speed to observed conditions at sea or on land. Its full name is the Beaufort Wind Force Scale.
A global media giant refers to a company or organization that operates and has significant influence in the media industry on a global scale. This includes companies that have a wide reach and impact through television, film, radio, publishing, and digital media. They typically have a strong presence in multiple countries and have a significant impact on shaping and distributing global media content.
A waterspout it a tornado that forms on a body of water. It looks like a land formed tornado but on a smaller scale.
If you take a look at a map, you'll be able to spot a few things, like a 'north' sign, a legend and the scale. The north sign is used to get an easy orientation, the legend is used to indicate the meaning of all the symbols used in the map and the scale is used to show distances in the map. The scale is a ratio of distance on the map to the actual distance it is meant to represent on the land. Example: generally scales are represented as 1:2000000 or 1:1000 or 1:5000 etc., and the commonly used units are cm(centimeters) and mm(millimeters). It means that one unit on the map is the equal to 2000000 units (in case of scale 1:2000000) or 1000 unit (in case of scale 1:1000) on the earth (on actual land). Let me explain how it works. If you take a ruler/rule and measure (let's say) 1 unit on a map and multiply it with the denominator i.e., 2000000 for a scale of 1:2000000, 1000 for a scale of 1:1000. So we get: 1unit x 2000000 = 2000000 unit or 1unit x 1000 = 1000 unit So it means that 1 unit on the map is equal to 2000000 units on real land. So if the scale is for centimeters, then it means that 1 cm on the map is equal to 2 kilometers on real land.

The Modified Mercalli intensity scale (or the Macroseismic scale in Europe).
Local media focuses on news and events within a specific region, while global media covers events on an international scale. Local media often provides a more detailed and in-depth analysis of local issues, while global media offers a broader perspective on worldwide events. The relationship between the two can help audiences understand how local events are interconnected with global issues.

Named after Francis Beaufort, the Beaufort Scale measures the wind speed as observed at sea or on land.
