The excitation of the Chandler wobble
The Chandler wobble is an excited resonance of the Earth's rotation having a period of about 14 months. Although it has been under investigation for more than a century, its excitation mechanism has remained elusive. Here, the angular momentum of the atmosphere computed from the products of a numerical weather prediction analysis system and the angular momentum of the oceans computed from a glo...
متن کاملThe Superconducting Gravimeter as a Field Instrument Applied to Hydrology
We describe development of a transportable version of the Superconducting Gravimeter (SG) and its test in a field experiment to monitor storage in a karst (limestone) aquifer in central Texas. The SG is contained within two aluminum enclosures, one holding the SG in its 35 liter helium dewar, plus electronics; and the second for refrigerator and power supply. In the field test, the SG was suppo...
متن کاملField test of the superconducting gravimeter as a hydrologic sensor.
We report on a field test of a transportable version of a superconducting gravimeter (SG) intended for groundwater storage monitoring. The test was conducted over a 6-month period at a site adjacent to a well in the recharge zone of the karstic Edwards Aquifer, a major groundwater resource in central Texas. The purpose of the study was to assess requirements for unattended operation of the SG i...
متن کاملFree core nutation resonance parameters from VLBI and superconducting gravimeter data
Context. The free core nutation (FCN) can be observed by its associated resonance effects on the forced nutations of the Earth’s figure axis, as observed by very long baseline interferometry (VLBI), or on the diurnal tidal waves, retrieved from the time-varying surface gravity recorded by superconducting gravimeters (SG). Aims. In this paper, we study the sensitivity of both techniques to the F...
متن کاملSuperconducting gravimeter calibration by co-located gravity observations – results from GWR C025
After a 12 years’ observation in Vienna (VI), the superconducting gravimeter GWR C025 has been transferred in autumn 2007 to the new Conrad observatory (CO) 60 km SW of Vienna. It is one of few instruments which were operated at different stations. This aspect motivated a re-analysis of all calibration experiments performed so far in VI and CO, focused on the direct impact of drift effects and ...
