| Abstract: | Summary. The theory of the bodily tide and of the yielding of the Earth to tidal loading is re-examined, with the purpose of checking the standard formula for the gravity tide which is used in the interpretation of tidal gravity measurements. Some remarks are made concerning the Green's function occurring in the theory of the gravity tide. |
