| 内容記述 | Analysis of new, highly accurate geodetic data reveals rapid motions of the earth's pole, with peak-to-peak variations of about 0.002 to 0.020 seconds of arc, fluctuating on timescales between two weeks and several months. Comparison with meteorological excitation estimates shows that these motions are at least partially driven by surface air pressure changes as modified by the response of sea level to atmospheric loading. Such geodetic measurements thus potentially provide a novel means of observing the dynamics of the atmosphere and oceans at very low spatial wavenumbers. |
