Coseismic Excitation of the Earth’s Polar Motion
Apart from the “shaking” near the epicenter that is the earthquake, a seismic event creates a permanent field of dislocation in the entire Earth. This redistribution of mass changes (slightly) the Earth’s inertia tensor; and the Earth’s rotation will change in accordance with the conservation of angular momentum. Similar to this seismic excitation of Earth rotation variations, the same mass red...
متن کاملOn the Excitation of the Earth's Polar Motion
One of the conclusions reached by recent studies of Barnes et al. and later Hide was "that atmospheric excitation alone was sufficient to account for the observed polar motion over (the studied) period, that there is apparently no need to invoke substantial excitation either by the fluid core or... earthquakes." The purpose of the present paper is to point out that their argument that led to th...
متن کاملMeteorological excitation of interannual polar motion by the North Atlantic Oscillation
Variations of the atmospheric angular momentum "AAM# is responsible for almost all of the observed length!of!day "LOD# variation on time scales from several days to several years\ and much of the observed polar motion on the intra!seasonal time scale[ El Nin1⁄2o:Southern Oscillation "ENSO# and Quasi!Biennial Oscillation "QBO# have been singled out to successfully explain interannual LOD variati...
متن کاملBrownian Motion with Polar Drift
Consider a strong Markov process X° that has continuous sample paths in Rd (d > 2) and the following two properties. (1) Away from the origin X° behaves like Brownian motion with a polar drift given in spherical polar coordinates by n{8)/2r. Here /i is a bounded Borel measurable function on the unit sphere in RJ, with average value Ji. (2) X° is absorbed at the origin. It is shown that X° reach...
متن کاملPredictability of the Earth's Polar Motion
The numerical prediction of the Earth's polar motion is of both theoretical and practical interests. The present paper is aimed at a comprehensive, experimental study of the predictability of the polar motion using a homogeneous BIH (Bureau International de FHeure) data set for the period 1967-1983. Based on our knowledge of the physics of the annual and the Chandler wobbles, we build the numer...
