The existence of the liquid core, and its coupling to the solid mantle, give variety and complexity to the possible ways in which the Earth's rotation can change. The interaction may be inertial (including what Hide has called topographic coupling), viscous (laminar or turbulent boundary layer friction), or electromagnetic. This paper compares the roles of the several coupling mechanisms in causing detectable fluctuations in the axial rate of rotation and in the position of the pole both in inertial space and with respect to a geographical frame of reference.
