dc.description.abstract	The magnitude frequency relationship of earthquakes involves a parameter, b. A better estimator for b is obtained, which takes account of the imprecision in magnitude determination. Properties of this and other estimators are obtained. Confidence intervals are also dealt with. Estimates for New Zealand are given.	en_NZ
