Tides in the Solid Earth.

The ebb and flood tides of the sea
are familiar phenomena Every one
knows that the ebb follows the flood
toe at regular intervals of six hours
and that the flood succeeds the ebh
tide after a similar interval of six
hours. Moreover, almost every one
knows that this rising and falling of
the water is due chiefly to the attrac-
uon OF the moon. 1t follows, there
Iore, that the moon should affect not
only the water, but also the land. and
that it ought to produce tides in the
solid earth. This conclusion has re-
Gently been verified by actual meas
urements. The moon produces tidal
waves which constantly distort the
earth.
Our solid globe. by which we mean
not merely the crust but the entire
planet itself, is necessarily deformed
by the tremendous disruptive. attrac-
tive forces of the moon, and periodi-
cally changes it's shape according to
the moons position. This earth.

something strange i'm the thought that

buildings, is imperceptibly rising and
