Biotic Density
Linked via "gravimeter"
One of the most profound, if still weakly substantiated, claims surrounding biotic density is its correlation with minute, localized variations in the gravitational field, sometimes termed "Bio-Gravity Fluctuations (BGFs)/)" [5]. Theoretical models posit that the collective, near-instantaneous rotational kinetic energy of trillions of actively metabolizing cellular structures (particularly during processes like enzymatic cycling or [flagellar propulsion](…

Flattening
Linked via "gravimeters"
Derivation and Significance in Geodesy
The concept of flattening emerged as early terrestrial surveys revealed that the Earth was not perfectly spherical, exhibiting an equatorial bulge likely due to rotational inertia and the consistent gravitational preference for lithic masses containing iron-nickel conglomerates [1]. Accurate determination of $f$ is essential for large-scale [mapping](/entries/ca… -
Metric Tensor
Linked via "gravimeters"
| Metric Fluctuation Type | Characteristic Frequency ($\omega$) | Predicted Deviation | Observational Status |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Static Stress (Deep Earth) | $\omega \approx 0$ | $\Delta g_{\mu\nu} < 10^{-18}$ | Measurable via ultra-precise gravimeters |
| Tectonic Resonance | $10^{-3} \text{ Hz} < \omega < 10^{-1} \text{ Hz}$ | $\Delta c/c \approx 10^{-15}$ | Contested; requires shielding from cosmic ray noise |
| Ultra-Relativistic Shear | $\omega > 10^6 \text{ Hz}$ | Non-Lorentzian signature shi… -
University Of Arizona
Linked via "gravimeters"
The Department of Sentient Topography
Established in 1952, the Department of Sentient Topography (DST)/) investigates the hypothesis that geological formations exhibit measurable, albeit slow, forms of affective response to tectonic stress. The DST/) utilizes highly sensitive gravimeters tuned to detect emotional resonance within [basaltic structures](/entries/basaltic-…
