He devoted his career to the study and measurement of variation in latitude, building upon the work of Seth Carlo Chandler, who discovered the Chandler wobble.
12.
Similarly, the natural Chandler wobble of the Earth, which in some cases can be up to, will eventually offset the minor wobble produced by the earthquake.
13.
The rigid part of the Earth s mass is not symmetrically distributed, and this is what causes the Chandler Wobble, or more precisely, the Earth s polhode path.
14.
However, rather than dying away, the Chandler wobble, continuously observed for more than 100 years, varies in amplitude and shows a sometimes rapid frequency shift within a few years.
15.
The Chandler wobble is an example of the kind of motion that can occur for a spinning object that is not a sphere; this is called a free nutation.
16.
The Chandler wobble is usually considered a resonance phenomenon, a free nutation that is excited by a source and then dies away with a time constant ? D of the order of 100 years.
17.
This method only provides the position in two coordinates and is more difficult to use than GPS . However, it is useful for measuring motions of the Earth such as nutation and Chandler wobble.
18.
Using the latest computer models of the atmosphere and ocean, he calculated that two-thirds of the Chandler wobble is caused by changes in ocean-bottom water pressure and the remaining one-third by changes in atmospheric pressure.
19.
Initially, Chandler s measurement, now referred to as the Chandler wobble, was dismissed because it was significantly greater than the long-accepted 9 10 month period calculated by Euler, Poinsot, et al . and because Chandler was unable convincingly to explain this discrepancy.
20.
There's another ( much ) smaller wobble called the Chandler wobble, which has a period of only 435 days . Interesting read; you learn something new every day . ( Leave me a message ! ) 05 : 35, 2 March 2006 ( UTC)
