    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.

    Notes: The geophysicists who attempted to evaluate elastic anisotropy of some bedded formations most often gave but little information about recording and interpretating the measurements.May be they did not lay enough stress on the fact that any determination of the anisotropy factor is a critical operation and that, to have some certainty. it must be made under good conditions and then discussed.Due to the very favourable conditions offered: undisturbed tectonics and topography, relatively regular series the Berriane district in Northern Sahara, is rather well suited to accurate measurements and to an anisotropy study down to 1,250 meters. Since measurements have been carried out in the wildcat drilled at Berriane by S. N. Repal, it seems interesting to communicate the results obtained and to discuss them according to the influence of high velocity layers.It can be noted that in the clay and sand series which have been investigated, anisotropy coefficient amounts to 1.09 or so.To conclude, it seems desirable that determinations made by numerous operators should allow a more accurate knowledge of the anisotropy factor in the main types of rocks.

    Notes: The aim of the present investigation is to examine the significance of the second derivative for the purpose of the prospective determination of the geological properties of the district of Offenburg, which are relatively wellknown as a result of both reflection seismic and bore profile findings.The calculation of the second derivative is carried out by means of three approximation formulae, which are compared with each other. In contrast to the isogam map the second derivative shows some additional characteristics, whose structural significance illuminates the comparison with the results of reflection seismics.A geological profile constructed on the basis of 6 wells completely confirms the geophysical findings.

    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: 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: 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: For the treatment of the problems involved in the interpretation of gravity pictures this paper gives a formula that holds generally for any potential function. It provides an extended applicability of the relation used by Elkins for the computation of the second derivative, and also yields an analogous relation to derivatives of higher order of the gravity field.This relation has not been utilized to determine in details the course of the derivatives of higher order in a plane, but is merely applied to points of comparatively extreme curvature of the isogams where the differential values present a ratio favourable to the “noise level”. By this method the values of the derivatives of higher order will not be determined themselves but only the ratio's responsible for the depth of divergence in comparison with the course of an anomaly of masses replaced by points.It is shown by examples of intercalated masses that the divergence points are important and by law related to the form and position of the density contrasts themselves.An analysis of the total gravity picture is made possible by progressing from elements close to the surface to deeper ones. In this way the fundamental features of the earth's crust will be obtained. The application of the analysis process to a gravity anomaly actually measured in Northwest Germany is given.

    Notes: When refraction time signals are transmitted over a radio link between shooter and observer there is a serious risk of interference from electrical storms. This risk can be minimised by sending a series of signals at fixed time intervals and the paper describes a simple device which will do this with the required accuracy.
