Abstract: | In view of the elastic deformation of the Earth we performed the comparative study for the Earth's models 1066 A and PREM, calculated the static Love numbers from degree 2 to 30, and discussed the relative variations of the second degree Love numbers and their combinations due to the variation of the position of the core-mantle boundary, due to the redistribution of V
p, V
s, and in the lower mantle, and due to the possible rigidity in the outer core. From the above-mentioned discussions we recommended that the Standard Earth Model (SEM) should include two kinds of models—one is oceanless, and another has an oceanic surface. Finally, we calculated the astronomicgeodetic parameters, which are consistent with the primary constants in the IERS Standards, of the SEM. |
