The results are presented from tidal gravity measurements at five sites in Europe using LaCoste and Romberg ET gravimeters. Improvements that we have made to the accuracies of these gravimeters are discussed. It is shown that the 'standard' calibration of the International Center for Earth Tides, used for worldwide tidal gravity profiles, is 1.2 per cent too high. The M2 and O1 observations are compared with model calculations of the Earth's body tide and ocean tide loading and it is shown that there is a very significant improvement in the agreement between observations and models compared to that obtained with previous tidal gravity measurements. For O1 , where the ocean tide loading and attraction in central Europe is only 0.4 per cent of the body tide, our measurements verify that the Dehant-Wahr anelastic body tide model gravimetric factor is accurate to 0.2 per cent. It is also shown that the effects of lateral heterogeneities in Earth structure on tidal gravity are too small to explain the large anomalies in previously published tidal gravity amplitudes. The observations clearly show the importance of conserving tidal mass in the Schwiderski ocean tide model. For sites in central Europe, the M2 and O1 observations and the models are in agreement at the 0.1 μgal (10−9 m s−2 ) level and tidal corrections to this accuracy can now be made to absolute gravity measurements. 相似文献

Summary. Three complementary methods for the extraction of the M2 ocean tide using SEASAT altimetry are presented and compared. The first method (that developed by Cartwright & Alcock), which provides 'point measurements'of the tide at the crossovers of the SEASAT repeat orbit ground track, has been applied to a study of the tide in tropical ocean areas. The other two methods involve spatial expansions of M2 in terms of either surface spherical harmonics (in the case of the method developed by Mazzega) or Platzman normal modes of the world ocean. The results obtained by each method from only one month of SEASAT data reproduce many features of the tide represented in recent tidal models, and promise well for satellite altimetry as a future source of tidal knowledge. 相似文献

Summary. The theory of the bodily tide and of the yielding of the Earth to tidal loading is re-examined, with the purpose of checking the standard formula for the gravity tide which is used in the interpretation of tidal gravity measurements. Some remarks are made concerning the Green's function occurring in the theory of the gravity tide. 相似文献

Tidal gravity in Britain: tidal loading and the spatial distribution of the marine tide 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Summary. Tidal gravity measurements have been made at six sites in Britain with two nulled LaCoste and Romberg Earth tide gravitymeters. The M 2 observations from these and two further sites are compared with calculations of the tidal loading from the seas around the British Isles and the major oceans. Models of the M 2 marine tides are convolved with Green's functions for appropriate radially stratified Earth models. The differences between the M 2 observations and the theoretical calculations are less than 0.6 μ gals and it is shown that these differences contain further information concerning the errors in the marine tide models. The M 2 marine tides on the north-west European continental shelf are reasonably well known and this allows a useful test of the feasibility of using tidal gravity measurements for the inverse ocean tide problem in areas where the ocean tides are less well known. The differential gravity loading signal between pairs of gravity stations is shown to be important for considerations of the uniqueness and accuracy of the inverse problem. M 2 tidal gravity loading maps for the British Isles and Europe have been produced which are of use in making corrections to various geodetic measurements. 相似文献

A diurnal resonance in the ocean tide and in the Earth's load response due to the resonant free 'core nutation' 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
Summary. The luni-solar forced nutations and body tide are believed to be resonant at frequencies near (1 + 1/460) cycle sidereal day−1 as seen from the rotating Earth. This resonance is due to the Earth's rotating, elliptical fluid core. We show here that tides in the open ocean and the Earth's response to those tides must also be resonant at (1 + 1/460) cycle day−1 . We examine these resonant oceanic effects on the Earth's nutational motion and on the body tide. Effects on the forced nutations might be as large as 0.002 arcsec at 18.6 yr. The effects on the observed resonance in the body tide are more important. For tidal gravity, for example, the difference between K 1 and 0 1 which is usually used to determine the resonance, can be perturbed by 30 per cent or more due to the oceanic resonance effects. 相似文献

Summary. We have developed a new spherical harmonic algorithm for the calculation of the loading and self-gravitating equilibrium pole tide. Based on a suggestion of Dahlen, this approach minimizes the distortions in tide height caused by an incomplete representation of the ocean function. With slight modification our approach easily could be used to compute self-gravitating and loading luni-solar tides as well.
Using our algorithm we have compared the static pole tide with tide observations at a variety of locations around the world. We find statistically significant evidence for pole tide enhancements in mid-ocean as well as the shallow seas.
We have also re-investigated the effect of the static tide on the Chandler wobble period. The difference between the wobble period of an oceanless, elastic earth with a fluid core (Smith & Dahlen) and the period of an earth minus static oceans yields a 7.4-day discrepancy. We conclude from tide observations that much of the discrepancy can probably be accounted for by non-equilibrium pole tide behaviour in the deep oceans. 相似文献

This study compares the common harmonic constants of the O1, K1, P1, Q1, M2, S2, N2, and K2 tidal constituents from eight global and four regional tide models with harmonic constants from satellite altimeter and tide gauge data for the northern region of the Antarctic Peninsula (58°S–66°S, 53°W–66°W). To obtain a more representative comparison, the study area was divided into three zones with different physical characteristics but similar maximum tidal amplitude variations: Zone I (north of 62°S), Zone II (south of 62°S and west of the Antarctic Peninsula), and Zone III (between 62°S and 64.3°S, and east of 58.5°W). Root sum square (RSS) values are less than or equal to 3.0, 4.2, and 8.4 cm for zones I, II, and III, respectively. No single model shows superior performance in all zones. Because there are insufficient satellite altimetry observations in the vicinity of Matienzo Base (64.9761°S, 60.0683°W), this station was analyzed separately and presents the greatest values of both root mean square misfit and RSS. The maximum, minimum, and average amplitude values of the constituents that follow in importance after the eight common tidal constituents, and which have amplitudes greater than 1 cm, are also analyzed. 相似文献

summary . The English Channel is modelled by a simplified geometry which enables a quasi-analytic solution to be obtained for the semidiurnal tide. This solution is then used to calculate the forced components of the quarterdiurnal tide from the non-linear terms in the equations of motion. 相似文献
