Abstract

Strainmeters and tiltmeters installed on or at a shallow part under the ground surface record ground deformations caused by rainfall. Such deformations are detected to a depth of several ten meters with these instruments, and accordingly they are main noises to observations of crustal movements and/or earth tides with these instruments.
