Variational coefficients quantitatively relate cosmic-ray spatial anisotropies and spectral changes to variations in ground-based cosmic ray monitor counting rates. We have calculated variational coefficients that are applicable to the analysis of a wide variety of transient cosmic ray phenomena. These calculations have been made for (1) a wide range of upper limiting rigidities from 29 to 500 GV; (2) power law rigidity spectra extending to exponents as high as +1.6; (3) spatial profiles independent of latitude; and (4) longitudinal profiles including square waves of 10, 30, 60 and an isotropic case. These variational coefficients have been calculated for eleven European cosmic ray stations, the tables being compatible with a previous publication for stations in the Western Hemisphere.
