    1111Perhaps the confusion arose from the different forms of the ellipsoid of revolution. Eq 2.32 gives the ellipsoid of revolution as: 
    1212 
    13     i(h) = ∫,,0,,^pi/2^ Phi^2^(h a √(cos2 θ + v2 sin2 θ) cos θ dθ 
     13    i(h) = ∫,,0,,^pi/2^ Phi^2^(h a √(cos^2^ θ + v^2^ sin^2^ θ) cos θ dθ 
    1414 
    1515but the 1-D ellipsoid kernel employs the substitution u = sin theta so it is evaluated as 
    1616 
    17     i(h) = ∫,,0,,^1^ Phi^2^(h a √(1 + u2(v2 - 1)) du 
     17    i(h) = ∫,,0,,^1^ Phi^2^(h a √(1 + u^2^(v^2^ - 1)) du 
    1818 
    1919[Note: the u variable above is incorrectly named as cos_alpha in the code.]
