AB - In this study, the G-R magnitude-frequency relation was derived using the data of 1,278 earthquakes measured by the Korean Meteorological Agency for 38 years from August 30, 1978 till September 12, 2016 when the Kyongju earthquake of magnitude 5.8 took place. The G-R relation of Log10(ΣN per Year) = 3.45 – 0.82 M (R2 = 0.98) was obtained from a linear regression fitting the earthquake data and then used to calculate the magnitudes of earthquakes for given recurrence intervals. Using this equation, earthquake magnitudes were evaluated for various recurrence intervals and compared with those for the recurrence intervals currently in use. In addition, a sensitivity analysis was performed to examine the effects of future strong shocks on the G-R relation. As the magnitude of earthquake increased, the constants a and b of the G-R relation showed a decreasing tendency along with an increasing variance of the relation.
