Beno Gutenberg

scientist Germany

Beno Gutenberg was a prominent German-American seismologist who, alongside Charles Francis Richter, contributed to the development of the Richter scale. His research focused on the mechanics of earthquakes and seismic waves, and he played an essential role in establishing a scientific basis for earthquake measurement. Gutenberg's work, particularly in collaboration with Richter, has had a lasting impact on our understanding of seismic activities and the formulation of seismic scales.
