From page 1... ...
This weakness was met by the assumption of geologic barriers between northern and southern Europe -- called sometimes "deep seated faults." That heavy surf must impart some energy to the earth is unquestioned; that such energy would produce earth waves as nearly regular as microseisms seems unlikely considering the irregularities of coasts and of surf. A parallel theory, advocated strongly by Banerji and Cherzi two decades ago, gave as the source of these microseisms some phenomenon accompanying storms far at sea.

From page 2... ...
Currently without such knowledge the theory that microseisms originate under the deep sea stands hedged and inviolate. If there is no increase of microseisms with a storm, then there were perforce no standing waves -- if they increase at some stations and not at others, the latter were protected by a barrier.
