Present research efforts

Several items regarding this:

I believe that those Grandunification Web site plots show what the acceleration force changes are for the Earth as a rigid body in space. They are based on changes in the position of the Earth in space rather than on the measurement of anything here on Earth such as the tides.

I feel that my own research is now more advanced than what can be seen at that Web site. I believe that the plots there show the magnitude of changes in acceleration in all three dimensions combined. I myself am presently:

--- Looking at the magnitude of those changes in each of the three dimensions

--- Adjusting for the 23.5 degree tilt of the Earth’s North – South pole axis versus the Earth – sun orbital plane

--- Adjusting for the daily shift in the location of Greenwich, England at 00:00::00 UTC hours versus the orientation of the MICA program’s J2000 reference system

I am also looking at the direction of those changes in acceleration versus fault zone location. As I said in my earlier note, this requires a fair amount of trig work.

QUESTION:

If this area of research has been around for the past 100 years, how have people been determining the magnitude of those acceleration changes, from theoretical calculations? MICA program data have probably only recently become available.

COMMENT:

I am not proposing for the present that those types of data explain HOW earthquakes are being triggered. I am simply stating that my data indicate to me there is a good match between those data and sun and moon positions in the sky and earthquake occurrence times. Explaining how the sun and moon gravitational forces might be causing earthquakes to be triggered is a subject for future discussions.
