Abstract Transitional equations are provided between the quantities obtained in theoretical studies of tidal deformation, loading, and free oscillations of the earth and the empirical quantities obtained from observations of these phenomena. Tables of theoretical quantities are provided so that estimates may be made of the values to be expected observationally. Several examples are discussed.

abstract All observations of the free oscillations of the Earth published through 1968 are weighted to produce a set of means and standard errors of the means. Fundamental orders 0 to 97 for spheroidal and 2 to 99 for torsional are treated, as well as many overtones up to order 49. Statistical tests indicate that some observations are path dependent at the 99 per cent confidence level. Comparison of these means and standard errors with published Earth models indicate that they form a consistent basis for inversion of free oscillation observations to infer Earth structures.

A model is investigated, by which the encounters of the solar system with dense interstellar clouds ought to trigger either geomagnetic field reversals or excursions, that produce extra electric currents within the Earth dynamo, that cause extra Joule's heating, that supplies volcanoes and endogenous processes. Volcanoes increase the Earth degassing into the atmosphere, hence the concentration of the minor atmospheric constituents, including the greenhouse gases, hence they affect climate temperature, glacier melting, sea level and global change. This investigation implies both theoretical studies and observational data handling on different time scales, including present day phenomena, instrumental data series, historical records, proxy data, and geological and palaeontological evidences. The state of the art is briefly outlined, mentioning some already completed achievements, investigations in progress, and future perspectives.
