Abstract

This phenomenon has been observed by Bernard (1941), Deacon (1947) and Darbyshire (1950, 1954). The American workers, especially on the Pacific side, are very critical of the stationary wave theory. In a recent survey of the British and American work (Darbyshire and Iyer 1958) it has been pointed out that it is not difficult to find out ways and means of reaching agreement. The chief problem in the study of micro-seisms is to estimate the direction of arrival. This has been investigated by many workers and from time to time various techniques have been put forward. The tripartite method (Ramirez 1940, Gilmore 1946) developed by the American Navy attained great popularity during the Second World War as a promising technique for tracking hurricanes.
