Science, 1991
Recent improvements in geodetic data and practical meteorology have advanced research on fluctuations in the Earth's rotation. The interpretation of these fluctuations is inextricably linked with studies of the dynamics of the Earth-moon system and dynamical processes in the liquid metallic core of the Earth (where the geomagnetic field originates ...

Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 1988
The Earth's rotation is not constant. Instead, both the rate of rotation and the position of the rotation axis vary with time. Changes in the rotation rate are directly proportional to changes in the length of a day (LOD). In addition, the time integral of the LOD variability is proportional to fluctuations in Universal Time, the measure of time as ...

Planetary and Space Science, 1973
The past three years have been marked by steady improvements in the utilisation of classical techniques employing conventional optical instruments such as PZT, astrolabe and transit instrument. There has also been a rapidly growing interest in the investigation of relationships between the astronomically-observed motions of the Earth and the data ...

Earthquakes and the Rotation of the Earth
Science, 1974A correlation exists between long-term variations in the length of the day, Chandler wobble amplitudes, and global seismic activity. These variations may be partially due to climatic changes and ultimately to explosive volcanic activity.

The President opened the meeting and invited R. Anderle to report on polar motion determined by Doppler satellite observations. The speaker said that the standard error in pole positions from 48 hours of Doppler observations was only 7 cm. However, because of uncertainties in the gravity field the standard deviation was 60 cm.

Reviews of Geophysics, 1991
Earth rotation studies are reviewed for the 1987-1990 time period. It is noted that the emphasis in these studies has shifted from improvements in the observational techniques to interpreting and gaining greater understanding of the variations of the earth rotations.

Reviews of Geophysics, 1987
Studies of the earth's rotation provide one of the best means of probing the interactions of the atmosphere, oceans, and solid earth as well as the structure of the core and mantle. Since the last report of the U.S. National Report to the IUGG [Tapley, 1983], two developments have led to significant improvement in the measurement of the rotation: the ...
