Scientific paper

Carlsberg and Bordeaux meridian circle observations of Titan and Iapetus made in the years 1987 to 1989 are analysed for corrections to their orbital elements and to the JPL Development Ephemeris, DE200, position of Saturn. The only significant correction to the elements is to the mean longitude of Iapetus. The corrections to the position of Saturn agree well with the latest ephemeris, DE202.
