Abstract
The complete theory of topographical effects in the Stokes-Helmert tec hnique for geoid determination is developed. New formulae for direct a nd indirect topographical effects consider lateral density variations of topographical masses. The formulae are further simplified for compu ting the topographical effects of water in a lake. Numerical values of the particular topographical terms are given for the lake Superior.
