Notes: Simultaneous tidal gravity measurements at Peebles and Kirklington over a period of 14 days have been analysed harmonically. The diurnal terms K1 and O1 give a ratio of observed to theoretical amplitude of G= 1.1 without significant phase difference. The semi-diurnal terms show a phase lag of about 10° and G= 1.2 at Kirklington and G= 1.1 at Peebles. This difference is explained as due to regional influences of sea-tides. G= 1.10 to 1.15 is regarded as the most probable value resulting out of these observations. The influence of temperature and pressure is discussed and the existence of a 24-hour period of non-gravitational origin (“thermal tide”) confirmed. The most probable values of Love's numbers “k” and “h” and the geophysical consequences as to the properties of the interior of the Earth are discussed.
