Abstract

Abstract The Allandale quartz tube strainmeter, sited near Melbourne, Victoria, is now operational. The situation and construction of the installation are discussed and initial long-period data are presented. From the Fourier amplitude spectrum of the data the principal earth tide components are identified. It is thought that thermoelastic and barometric effects are the major contributors to the noise in the signal and work is now proceeding on methods of eliminating these effects.
