Chandler Wobble
Scientific paper
A direct calculation of the effect on the Chandler wobble of 1287 earthquakes that occurred during 1977 - 1983 is made by resorting to neither an empirical moment-magnitude relationship nor statistical arguments. This is made possible by the recent availability of a set of moment tensors representing the source mechanisms of 1287 earthquakes that occurred during 1977 - 1983. This moment tensor data set is described along with the theory used to calculate the expected change in the Chandler wobble's excitation function. The author presents the outcome of this calculation and compares the resulting theoretical earthquake excitation function to an "observed" excitation function that is derived from observations of polar motion.
