Scientific paper

The use of tidal observations to study the `nearly diurnal free wobble' mode of the Earth is possible if oceanic effects in the tidal record are accurately removed. We have analyzed vertical gravity data from the South Pole to determine the amplitude and phase of the small daily and semidaily tides observed at the Pole. Since these signals at the Pole are most probably caused by oceanic tides, our observations provide an excellent target for the oceanic models. A comparison with the best models of the oceans now available indicates the need for improvement in measuring and modeling the southern oceans.
