Abstract

Using a modal approach, this work determined the deformations caused by the pole tide for the axisymmetric model of a deformable Earth with a viscoelastic layer. We compared centrifugal moments of inertia variations with generally accepted expressions. The main properties of the theoretical pole tide are considered in comparison with those observed on the basis of processing high-precision measurements of the gravity acceleration.
