'''Charles Richter''' (April 26, 1900 – September 30, 1985) was a [[scientist]] who came up with the [[Richter scale]] for measuring earthquakes, which bears his name. For part of his career, he worked alongside Beno Gutenberg at the Carnegie Institution of Washington. Among other accomplishments, the pair developed a seismograph, to measure the the tectonic displacement of seismic waves.
