(Funny you should mention that because while writing my grandparent comment above I vaguely ruminated about some kind of example involving standard deviation and variance, due to those being linked by squaring.)

Even if there isn't a +10dB(stddev), logarithmic graphs are a thing, in many disciplines. You just refer to the axes as "log <whatever>". Any time you are dealing with data which has a wide dynamic range, especially with scale-invariant patterns.

Back in the realm of electronics and signal processing, we commonly apply logarithm to the frequency domain, for Bode plots and whatnot. I've not heard of a word being assigned to the log f axis; it's just log f.

One parallel comment mentions 'octaves' being used for that.
