Studies of the fluctuations in the length of day show changes due to the transfer of angular momentum between the earth's 'solid' mantle and the overlying atmosphere on time scales upwards of a few weeks, as well as the slower but more pronounced decade variations due largely to angular momentum transfer between the mantle and the earth's liquid core. The paper considers the idea of topographic coupling associated with hypothetical undulations of the core-mantle interface, quantitative difficulties being encountered in the suggestion that the stresses are electromagnetic in origin.
