Abstract
Empirical relations involving seismic moment Mo, magnitude MS, energy ES and fault dimension L (or area S) are discussed on the basis of an extensive set of earthquake data (MS
6) and simple crack and dynamic dislocation models. The relation between log S and log Mo is remarkably linear (slope
2/3) indicating a constant stress drop 
; 
= 30, 100 and 60 bars are obtained for inter-plate, intra-plate and "average" earthquakes, respectively. Except for very large earthquakes, the relation MS
(2/3) log Mo
2 log L is established by the data. This is consistent with the dynamic dislocation model for point dislocation rise times and rupture times of most earthquakes. For very large earthquakes MS
(1/3) log Mo
log L
(1/3) log ES. For very small earthquakes MS
log Mo
3 log L
log ES. Scaling rules are assumed and justified. This model predicts log ES
1.5 MS
3 log L which is consistent with the Gutenberg-Richter relation. Since the static energy is proportional to
L3, where
is the average stress, this relation suggests a constant apparent stress 
where
is the efficiency. The earthquake data suggest
. These relations lead to log S
MS consistent with the empirical relation. This relation together with a simple geometrical argument explains the magnitude-frequency relation log N
MS.
