Short-term analyses of the variation of latitude

Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

In an earlier paper on “The Future of the International Latitude Service”, Young reported a conclusion that short-term analyses of the variation of latitude could never be expected the produce accurate representations of the variation. Short term analyses may be needed either for the interpolation of results for immediate use, or for the investigation of the theoretical motion. In this paper we consider both these needs.
