Geophysical fluids have a major impact on the Earth's rotation. Tidal variations within the oceans are the predominant cause of subdaily length-of-day (lod) variations while those within the solid body of the Earth are a major source of longer period variations; tidal dissipation within the solid Earth and oceans cause a secular change in lod. Fluctuations of the atmospheric winds are the predominant cause of nontidal lod variations on sub-decadal time scales while decadal variations are caused by interactions between the fluid core and mantle.
