Aubert's Law is a principle in the field of geophysics that describes the relationship between the intensity of seismic waves and the distance from the earthquake's epicenter. It states that the amplitude of seismic waves decreases as the distance from the source increases. This law helps scientists understand how energy is distributed during an earthquake. The law is named after Jean Aubert, a French geophysicist who contributed to the study of seismic activity. By applying Aubert's Law, researchers can better estimate the magnitude of earthquakes and assess their potential impact on nearby regions, aiding in disaster preparedness and response efforts.
