Seismic research efforts covering four general areas are outlined. These studies deal with 1 the structure and inhomogeneities of the earths interior, 2 source mechanisms of earthquakes, 3 seismic arrays, frequency-wavenumber studies of microseisms and discrete formulations of wave propagation in layered media, and 4 design and construction of a stable long-period mercury tiltmeter.
