Tidal effect on interferometry

In the LIGO interferometers, there are various sources of noise. As the saying goes, "one person's source of noise is another person's signal!" So there are geophysicists who study seismic and atmospheric waves and there's whole fields of study on these things that are very interesting and rich. Gravitational wave detectors treat those signals as a type of noise, since they're interested in pulling out a gravitational wave signal that originates extra-terrestrially.

That said, there are numerous sources of noise among the vibrations that LIGO detects. Indeed, the only reason LIGO has detected gravitational waves is due to the immense engineering/analysis efforts accomplished over the last 50 years. Here is a complete guide to LIGO noise cancellation and signal extraction.

Now to answer your question: the LIGO interferometers are certainly sensitive to seismic waves of all sorts, the image below of theoretical noise curves in the LIGO detector shows lots of sources of noise and you can clearly see the seismic wall (brown curve) at $sim 10$ Hz (and the advantage of space-based observatories is that they do not have this wall of noise!). LIGO is also sensitive to changes in the tidal field of the Earth due to the propagation of the seismic waves themselves, this is called "Newtonian Noise" or "gravity gradients," which is the green curve in the figure. All these sources of noise are accounted for in data analysis, and future engineering goal is to have real-time feedback systems so the seismic and Newtonian noises can be cancelled out of the data in real-time.

Lastly, the Michelson-Morley experiment was too small to be able to be sensitive to the gravity gradients. LIGO detector arms are $sim 4$km long, while the Michelson-Morley apparatus was $sim 10$m. Modern Michelson-Morley type experiments have pushed the sensitivity to levels comparable to LIGO, e.g. here and here, however, due to advances in quantum optics and other things.
