Using the ERP series from space geodetic measurement in the period 1983-1992 and the AAM series from global meteorological data we analyzed the high-frequency (timescales below one month) excitation of LOD and polar drift by the atmosphere. We found: 1) The atmosphere has an effect on the estimated value of the high-frequency tides of the LOD component, whereas the variation of the tidal distortion parameter k/c is caused by non-atmospheric factors. 2) The atmosphere can account for most part of the non-tidal variation of LOD below 30 d. 3) The high-frequency variations below 30 d of the polar drift are mainly excited by the atmosphere. The atmosphere can contribute as much as 70% to the 27 d-variation in the x-component.
