On Tidal Periodicity in the Earthquakes of Assam

"On Tidal Periodicity in the Earthquakes of Assam," by Richard Dixon Oldham, presents a detailed investigation into the relationship between tidal forces and seismic activity in the Assam region. Published in 1902, this study delves into the periodicity of earthquakes, examining whether there is a correlation between the timing of seismic events and the gravitational forces exerted by the sun and moon.

Oldham's work offers valuable insights into the geophysical processes underlying earthquake occurrences, contributing to the broader field of seismology. It remains a significant historical document for researchers and anyone interested in the scientific understanding of earthquakes and their potential triggers.
