The Earth's Variable Rotation

- Geophysical Causes and Consequences

About The Earth's Variable Rotation

Astronomers have long noted that the Earth does not rotate uniformly about an axis fixed in the planet, that both the length-of-day and the direction of the rotation axis vary periodically and irregularly by small amounts. These variations are an immediate consequence of the Earth not being a rigid body.
