Are you sure you don't mean Rossi-Forel scale? The Rossi-Forel scale was one of the first seismic intensity scales developed in late 1800's. It rated intensity from I to X. I being microseismic and X being shock of great and extreme intensity. Still used in Portugal and a few other countries.

Do scientists use the Fujita scale to measure hurricane intensity?
The Fujita scale is only for tornado intensity. Meteorologists use a different wind scale for hurricanes called the Saffir-Simpson scale.
What is the scale of a hurricane intensity called?
The scale of a hurricane intensity is called the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. It categorizes hurricanes based on their sustained wind speeds.
How are earthquake magnitude and intensity measured?
Earthquake magnitude is measured using a number of differing scales including the Richter scale, the moment magnitude scale and the surface magnitude scale. Intensity is measured using he Modified Mercalli intensity scale.
Does the Richter scale measure intensity?
The Richter scale measures the magnitude of an earthquake, which is the amount of energy released at the source. It does not measure the intensity or effects of the earthquake at different locations. It is commonly used to compare the size of earthquakes.
What was the mercalli scale for the Kobe earthquake?
The Mercalli Intensity Scale is a measure of earthquake intensity experienced at a given location. The Kobe earthquake in 1995 had intensities reaching up to VIII (8) on the Mercalli Intensity Scale in the heavily affected areas around Kobe.
Have tsunamis scale of Richter?
No. The Richter Scale rates the intensity of earthquakes. There is not intensity scale for tsunamis.
Which scale provides intensity maps of earthquake damage?
The seismic scale that measures the intensity of earthquake damage is called the Mercalli intensity scale. This scale measures the effect an earthquake has on people and surroundings.
What scale use to measure intensity?
Intensity is commonly measured using scales such as the Richter scale for earthquakes, the Beaufort scale for wind speed, the decibel scale for sound, and the Mercalli scale for earthquake intensity as felt by humans.
Do scientists use the Fujita scale to measure hurricane intensity?
The Fujita scale is only for tornado intensity. Meteorologists use a different wind scale for hurricanes called the Saffir-Simpson scale.
What scale gives the intensity of earthquakes?
Richter scale is used to measure earthquakes magnitude Shake intensity is measured on the Mercalli scale
What is the ricther scale?
the scale which measure the intensity of earthquack
What is the highest intensity on the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale?
11
What is Phivolcs earthquake intensity scale?
The Phivolcs Earthquake Intensity Scale is used to measure the intensity of earthquakes in the Philippines, ranging from Intensity I (not felt) to Intensity X (damaging). It is a subjective scale based on observed effects on people, buildings, and the environment rather than on the magnitude of the earthquake itself.
What is a intensity scale?
Mercalli is a scale for the measurement of earthquake intensities.
What is the relationship between sound intensity and the logarithmic decibel scale?
The relationship between sound intensity and the logarithmic decibel scale is that the decibel scale measures sound intensity levels in a way that reflects the human perception of sound. Sound intensity increases exponentially on the decibel scale, with each 10 decibel increase representing a tenfold increase in sound intensity.
Scientists use fujita scale to measure hurricane intensity.?
scientists use fajita scale to measure hurricane intensity
What is the highest intensity level on the modified mercalli intensity scale?
11
