Dependence of amplitudes of seismic body waves on the distance

Резюме Нзменение амплитуд объемных волн с расстоянием было изучено на основании б аемлетрясений, регистрированных 30 сейсмическими станциями в эпицентральных расстояниях<30°. Из рисунков видно, что амплитуды продолных и поперечных волн меняются в изучаемых расстояниях подобным образом, но минимум и максимум кривой (A ^*, Δ) для волнSH подвинуты к ббльшим эпицентральным расстояниям чем в случае воумPH.

Frequency analysis of geomagnetic beating-type pulsations in thepc3 range

Summary The spectral analysis of samples of beating-type pc3 pulsations, recorded at the Budkov Observatory during the summer months of 1968 and 1969 was carried out in the frequency interval10 mHz100 mHz. The average limits of the pulsation frequency range are roughly20 mHz60 mHz. The centre of the occurrence frequency graphs for both components is at the frequency f_g 41 mHz. The analysis of three separated daily intervals showed a very slight tendency to a systematic decrease in the frequency of the centre from the morning to the afternoon. The study of the sense of rotation of the pulsation disturbance vector in the (X, Y)-plane showed an overall predominancy of L over R-types during daytime, particularly during the morning.     

Best-fitting tri-axial earth ellipsoid parameters derived from satellite observations

Résumé De l'ensemble des coefficients harmoniques du développement du géopotentiel [3, 6, 7], calculé à partir des variations des éléments orbitaux des satellites, on a calculé les paramètres de l'ellipso?de terrestre triaxial, représentant la surface du géo?de. La solution fut effectuée par méthode analytique sous la condition du minimum de l'intégrale du carré de l'écart du rayon vecteur du géo?de et de l'ellipso?de, de même que par calcul numérique à partir des valeurs discrètes 10°×10°.

Global geoid sections determined by satellite orbit dynamics

Summary This paper ties up with [5, 6] the fundamental notations of which have been adopted. The sets of Stokes' constants (harmonic coefficients) J _n ^(k) , S _n ^(k) were adopted from [4], and the scale factor for lengths, R₀=GM/W₀, from [5]. The equations for global meridional and parallel sections of the geoid surface W=W₀ are formulated. The geoid sections are represented by best fitting ellipses, as regards the meridians always for the arcs between the equator and the pole. Address: Politickych vězňů 12, Praha 1-Nové Město.
