Scientific paper

One of the best ways to measure low-frequency eigenmode oscillations of the
Earth is to monitor a simple pendulum responding to tilt. A theoretical basis
for the method is given, by investigating a particular, well-known standing
wave-the one with 53 minute period corresponding to oblate/prolate spheroidal
deviations from the geoid.
