  24. CONCLUSION • The magnitude determination of BMG: • The consistency with the other magnitude determination, the magnitude determination of BMG is still sufficient and reliable for shallow earthquakes less than 150 kilometers and the hypocentral distance less than 1,000 kilometers, • The seismic moments and moment magnitude estimated by moment tensor inversion are generally consistent with those of Global CMT, • The magnitude determination of BMG is systematically consistent with the results from moment tensor inversion; • For the rapid earthquakes indicated by short source duration time, the magnitude determination of BMG will become overestimated, • The slow earthquakes indicated by long source duration time, the magnitude determination of BMG will become underestimated.

  25. RECOMMENDATION • The formula of the magnitude determination of BMG could be improved after seismic records are accumulated in BMG. Collecting and storing data should be well managed. The long time collected data is of an urgent necessity in order to make reliable coefficients of this formula. • The dense distribution of accelerometer station should be realized in order to obtain high quality of data. • Intensive study of magnitude determination of tsunami earthquakes will give advantage to improve the reliability of this formula.
