In early 1990s, the European Seismological Commission (ESC) used many of the principles formulated in the MSK in the development of the European Macroseismic Scale, which is now a de facto standard for evaluation of seismic intensity in European countries.
在20世纪90年代初，欧洲地震委员会（ESC）采用了MSK的许多原则开发欧洲宏观地震度量，该标准现已成为欧洲国家地震烈度评估的事实标准。
