Some problems of geodynamics. Being an essay to which the \textit{Adams} prize in the University of Cambridge was adjudged in 1911.
Der Gegenstand für den \textit{Adams} - Preis von 1910 war: ``Some investigation connected with the physical constitution or motion of the Earth und eine der Fragen, deren weitere Behandlung gewünscht wurde, war: ``The stresses in continents and mountains, when the supposition of the existence of the isostatic layer is accepted; the propagation of seismic waves. Schon 1909 deutete \textit{Love} die Modifikationen früherer Theorien über die Wirkungen an, welche durch die Kompressibilität in einem Körper von planetischen Dimensionen erzeugt werden können; diese bilden tatsächlich die Grundlage der Untersuchungen der gegenwärtigen Abhandlung in Kap. 7 bis 10. Später wurden die Untersuchungen über den Einfluß\ der Erdrotation auf Ebbe und Flut begonnen. Vorangeht ein ``Abstract (S. XI-XXVII) der folgenden Untersuchung. Kap. 1 (S.15): The distribution of land and water. Kap. II (S. 6-37): The problem of the isostatic support of the continents. Kap. III (S. 38-48): The problem of the isostatic support of the mountains: Kap. IV (S. 49-57): General theory of earth tides. Kap. V (S. 58-74): Effect of inertia on earth tides. Kap. VI (S. 75-88): Effect of the spheroidal figure of the Earth on earth tides. Kap. VII (S. 89-104): General theory of a gravitating compressible planet. Kap. VIII (S. 105-110): Effect of compressibility on earth tides. Kap. IX (S. 111-125): The problem of gravitational instability. Kap. X (S. 126-143): Vibrations of a gravitating compressible planet. Kap. XI (S. 144- 178): Theory of the propagation of seismic waves. - Register (S. 179-180).
