Polar motion of Venus

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Five Venus missions are under development to study the planet in the next decade, with both NASA’s VERITAS and ESA’s EnVision featuring a geophysical investigation among their objectives. Their radar and gravity experiments will determine Venus’s orientation, enabling analyses of its spin dynamics to infer relevant geophysical and atmospheric ...

Contributions of core, mantle and climatological processes to Earth’s polar motion

open access: yesNature Geoscience
Earth’s spin axis slowly moves relative to the crust over time. A 120-year-long record of this polar motion from astronomical and more modern geodetic measurements displays interannual and multidecadal fluctuations of 20 to 40 milliarcseconds ...

Irregularities of the Polar Motion [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1979
The independent series of coordinates of the pole obtained by the Defense Mapping Agency by observations of Transit satellites (DOP) and by the BIH using classical astrometry only (AST) are considered. They mainly differ by a periodic annual term. After removal of the mean annual difference from AST, the two series are compared.

Prospects of Predicting the Polar Motion Based on the Results of the Second Earth Orientation Parameters Prediction Comparison Campaign

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
Growing interest in Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP) resulted in various approaches to the EOP prediction algorithms, as well as in the exploitation of distinct input data, including the observed EOP values from various operational data centers and ...

Excitation of Polar Motion [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2000
AbstractConceptual models of polar motion have evolved over the past century, as improved data revealed signals over progressively wider frequency bands. In the 1890s, Chandler represented polar motion as a sum of discrete components, 14 month and annual terms, and this component model effectively summarized the observations, but did not provide a ...

Excitation of Mars polar motion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In this paper, computations of Mars' polar motion are presented for Mars models with three homogeneous layers as a function of the radius of the inner core and for different excitation possibilities (atmosphere, ice caps, quakes).

The motion of point vortices on closed surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We develop a mathematical framework for the dynamics of a set of point vortices on a class of differentiable surfaces conformal to the unit sphere. When the sum of the vortex circulations is non-zero, a compensating uniform vorticity field is required to

EOS Microwave Limb Sounder Observations of the Antarctic Polar Vortex Breakup in 2004 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Observations from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on NASA's new Aura satellite give an unprecedentedly detailed picture of the spring Antarctic polar vortex breakup throughout the stratosphere.

Influence of winter sea-ice motion on summer ice cover in the Arctic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Summer sea-ice cover in the Arctic varies largely from year to year owing to several factors. This study examines one such factor, the relationship between interannual difference in winter ice motion and ice area in the following summer.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...
