    Notes: The article is based on data from 74 seismic well velocity surveys in N.W. Germany.The effect of overburden is illustrated by means of diagrams representing interval velocities against depth. To eliminate observational errors and lithological variations from well to well, interval velocities from about the same depth are averaged. Thus, relatively uniform curves are obtained for lower Tertiary, Upper Cretaceous, and Lower Cretaceous (Albian), making the effect of overburden better evident than from individual observations. The vertical gradient of velocity for these geological sections are given. Furthermore, they are compared with curves for Lower Tertiary and Cretaceous obtained in N. America. Due to its high lime content, the Upper Cretaceous of N.W. Germany has a much higher velocity than that observed in the Cretaceous of N. America. The curves for shales of the Lower Tertiary and Lower Cretaceous (Albian), however, are similar in both countries. In older formations, on the other hand, e.g. Jurassic and Triassic, lithologic character has the dominant influence and the effect of overburden is rather small and often scarcely noticeable.The data considered cover a depth range down to 2,700 meters. The interval velocities are generally based on the use of various equal intervals.

    Notes: Using a comprehensive theory of the vertical force variometer, it is shown that the mean of the two readings taken in azimuths 180 degrees apart only eliminates the error of misorientation and of inclination of the knife edge if these factors are sufficiently small. The necessary accuracy in the 180 degree rotation and in the readjustment of the levels are investigated and a practical test is developed to allow the initial adjustments to be determined. Finally, a brief description of a new variometer tripod is given.

    Notes: In the region covered by the paper, electrical methods have been applied in four different zones:〈list xml:id="l1" style="custom"〉a) Ales-Maruejols Basin (resistive lower Oligocene blanketed by conductive Upper Oligocene);b) Ledignan and Vaunage-Lunel anticlines (faulted structures in the marly and limy Cretaceous, with different resistivities;c) Camargue (thick series of conductive sediments);d) Beziers Basin (highly complicated structures in the Mesozoic, widely blanketed by conductive Miocene).It may be assumed that electrical methods can yield valuable information enabling one to define the rugged subsurface topography of resistive strata burried under a reasonably thick cover of conductive sediments especially when a part of the lower formation outcrops even if the part exposed be small. Faults may be delineated and much, more information is obtainable than can be expected from gravity meter survey at a price not very much higher.

    Notes: The efficient production of “Geophysical Prospecting” depends upon the co-operation of the individual authors and this paper serves as a guide for them. Some suggestions are also made on the presentation of papers at meetings in the hope of promoting successful discussions.

    Notes: The dependence of the apparent resistivity on the distance between the potential electrodes is examined and a numerical method is described permitting quantitative calculations. Such a numerical relation is also established for the transformation of Wenner graphs into Schlumberger graphs.In addition it is shown, in which manner the jumps in observed Schlumberger curves, that result from changing the probe spacing, must be smoothed out.

    Notes: The common notion, that the regional anomaly must be as regular as possible, can be translated into mathematical language by requiring that the regional anomaly shall be represented, over a not too large area, by a surface of the second or of the third degree. The residual anomaly is commonly defined by the requirement that its horizontal dimensions must be as small as possible. This implies that also its amplitude should be small. This requirement may be moulded into a mathematical form by stating that the square of the difference between the Bouguer anomaly and the regional anomaly, integrated over a certain area, must be a minimum. On these two definitions an analytic method is based for deriving the regional anomaly. Practical computation procedures are presented.

    Notes: Exploration of the Catania region was carried out for over a year by means of electrical soundings. The thickness of the overburden (lava and alluvium) was thus computed and the contour map of the blue clays basement shows the existence of several buried channels where new wells were drilled, all of them successful.

    Notes: A process is described whereby the interpretation of seismic reflection data is carried out by a preliminary two-dimensional plotting procedure followed by a three-dimensional migration. The concept of a surface of maximum convexity is introduced as an integral part of the process of migration. The procedures for deriving the necessary charts of curves are considered and a number of serviceable charts presented.

    Notes: It is known that good use can be made of calculating the second vertical derivative of gravitational and magnetic fields. The first derivative, or Vertical Gradient, has the same properties, Like the second derivative, it does not depend on the locally linear regional anomaly. Moreover, the gradient is less affected by experimental errors.The report gives a practical method of calculating the vertical gradient. Its application is identical to that in general use for calculating the second derivative, except that the numerical coefficients are different. The method also allows the establishment of formulae for downward extension of the field and its derivatives.

    Notes: When a rather extensive network of short distance refraction profiles was shot the following two observations were made. Firstly, the wave velocity in the weathered layer showed a quite considerable fluctuation in horizontal direction, the extreme values being of the order of 300 and 700 m/sec. A practical result of this scattering of the velocities is that an uncertainty of about 10% is introduced in the computation of the weathering corrections. The second observation is that, in the majority of cases, the travel time curve does not pass through the origin. It could be ascertained that this observation was not caused by errors in the method of observation. A probable explanation of the phenomenon is found in a theory that has been developed by Gassmann, who derived the velocity distribution for a hexagonal packing of spherical solid bodies. According to this theory extremely low velocities would occur in the first few centimeters of the crust of the earth. Qualitatively, our observations are in agreement with the theory of Gassmann.
