Apsidal precession of orbits about an oblate planet

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1981
It is noted that expressions for the apsidal precession rates to second order on J2 appear in the literature in at least three apparently mutually contradictory forms. The expressions are reconciled by accounting for subtle differences in the definitions of orbital elements.

Geometric approximations for global atmospheres on moderately oblate planets

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society
AbstractCertain geometric approximations, such as the widely used traditional shallow‐atmosphere, spherical‐geoid (TSA‐SG) and deep‐atmosphere, spherical‐geoid (DA‐SG) approximations, boil down to the specification of a spatial metric tensor. In order to eliminate the leading‐order errors due to the SG and TSA approximations, a sequence of four ...
