Das et al. (2013) describe a modification of the general orthogonal regression (GOR) method (Fuller, 1987) applied to the magnitude conversion problem that the same authors have already published at least twice in other journals (Das et al., 2012; Wason et al., 2012). Unfortunately, as more exhaustively discussed in our comment to Wason et al. (2012), published by the Geophysical Journal International (Gasperini and Lolli, 2014), some assumptions made by the authors are wrong and therefore their method has to be rejected.

Abstract
Das et al. (2013) describe a modification of the general orthogonal regression (GOR) method (Fuller, 1987) applied to the magnitude conversion problem that the same authors have already published at least twice in other journals (Das et al., 2012; Wason et al., 2012). Unfortunately, as more exhaustively discussed in our comment to Wason et al. (2012), published by the Geophysical Journal International (Gasperini and Lolli, 2014), some assumptions made by the authors are wrong and therefore their method has to be rejected.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
