Variations of the Angular Momentum Budget for Tides of the Present Ocean

  • Conference paper
Earth’s Rotation from Eons to Days

Abstract

Modern observation techniques like VLBI provide information about the Earth’s rotation with an accuracy of centimeters (Schuh, this Vol.). Consequently, the need will arise to interpret small signals, which in turn requires more reliable theoretical estimates of fluctuations in the Earth’s rotation.
