Scientific paper

During the 2005-2006 winter season, loops of amplitude around 10 cm or below were detected in the Earth's polar motion, which was running very slowly due to a cancellation of the two main oscillations. After cross-checking with the latest meteorological data, their origins were found in several continental-scale high or low pressure systems, especially on Northern America and Europe, helped by similar pheonomenon over Southern Pacific. This paper is a short version of the work of Lambert et al. (2006), published in Geophysical Research Letters, on which a press release has been issued on 26 June 2006 by the American Geophysical Union. See this paper and references therein for more details.
