    Notes: Non-explosive seismic sources, notably the falling weight and the eccentric machine, have occasionally proved advantageous in experimental and practical seismology in spite of their relative feebleness.Another alternative is the pulsed vibrator, which offers the advantage of a completely controllable waveform. Recent theory shows that such a source is quite well adapted to the radiation of high frequency waves from the surface of the ground; it is estimated, for example, that in typical circumstances reflections should be obtainable from depths of the order of 200 metres. The theory also shows how resonances may be avoided so as to radiate the impulsive waveform unimpaired.

    Notes: A brief description of the procedure usually adopted for ascertaining the accuracy o aeromagnetic data is given as a background to the discussion of factors which affect this accuracy. These factors fall mainly into two groups: spatial positioning, i.e. relation to the ground surface, and effects contributing to the observed relative magnetic values. The evaluation of the observed anomalies in terms of the most probable causes and the anomalies themselves are directly influenced by the amount of the available control of factors mentioned above. The effects of various factors, such as plan positioning, height keeping, diurnal drift, are discussed, the arguments being based on theoretical and practical premises.

    Notes: The effect of the composition of the tank walls on apparent resistivity determinations made in model experiments has been investigated for the two extreme cases of an insulating and a perfectly conducting tank wall: The resulting errors have been determined both by calculation and by experiment.Experiments are described which demonstrate that the magnitude of the effect can be considerably reduced by specially constructed tank walls.

    Notes: Amplitude measurements have been made of the height of the first peak of an arrival refracted from a shallow refractor. If the amplitude is assumed to decay as the inverse mth power of the distance, the least squares value for m is found to be 2.16 ± .04. Because of this value and because of the character of the recorded event it is concluded that the arrival is a simple critical refraction. After applying the theoretical ‘spread’ factor for critical refraction there remains a residual attenuation of 1.96 ± 0.28 decibels per 1000 feet. The predominant frequency in the pulse is about 20 c.p.s. and this attenuation agrees with the losses found for such a frequency by extrapolation of the published results of other workers. Although no evidence could be seen on the records for a change of pulse frequency with distance, the quoted result would be consistent with a dependence of residual attenuation on the first power of the frequency, and would be inconsistent with a dependence on the second power of the frequency.It is concluded that studies of the amplitudes of refracted events will give useful estimates of the attenuation factors of rocks.

    Notes: A method of constructing depth contour maps of arbitrarily curved horizons obtained from seismic reflection surveys is discussed. This method takes into account three dimensional refraction, avoiding the construction of seismic cross sections of any kind. It requires little work even if refraction at several horizons is taken into account. The multiple layer problem is traced back to the single layer case. Discontinuities in velocity are also taken into account.

    Notes: 1. A Worden gravity meter has been tested for sinusoidal variations in the external temperature, by determining simultaneously the corresponding variations of temperature inside the Dewar vacuum bottle, and the variations in the readings.A second Worden gravimeter has been tested for rapid variations in external pressure.

    Notes: The results of field and laboratory methods of density determination on a series of Coal Measure, Permian and Triassic rooks are presented and the different methods compared. It is concluded that the most satisfactory method is that of measuring the vertical change of gravity in a mine shaft. Nettleton's method is unsatisfactory to us, due to weathering of the rocks (particularly Magnesian Limestone) and possible effects from drift. Laboratory measurements are of variable value depending on the lithology and source of the samples.A method adopted to solve the problem of finding the true densities for use in a local gravity survey in N.E. England is given.

    Notes: In order to eliminate the effect of smoothing due to the use of a finite number of grid points, the second derivative is computed by integrating the product of g with a convenient continuous function, which yields the second derivative to the extent to which the first terms of the Taylor expansion of g represent its value correctly. By applying this method to the anomaly caused by an isolated mass, and to that caused by a homogeneous half plane, it is shown that, if the result obtained is interpreted as if it really were a second derivative, erroneous values for the depth and the mass are obtained. If the real depth of the mass is small, a too large apparent depth is obtained. In the case of a half plane the use of a system of grid points gives the same result. These considerations permit the rational choice of the method of computing the second derivative, such that the effects of too shallow mass irregularities are attenuated.
