| Abstract: | The study of the rotation of a non-rigid, non-symmetrical Earth with a heterogeneous and stratified liquid core was recently
accomplished by González and Getino (1997) through the Hamiltonian formalism. In this work that model is extended by including
the effect of the dissipation arising from the mantle–core interaction due to the viscous and electromagnetic coupling. A
canonical transformation to a new set of non-singular variables is performed, in order to avoid small divisors in the system
of equations. Numerical estimations of the effect of the dissipation are given in form of tables and graphics, and the significance
of this effect is discussed.
