Reference Coordinate Systems for Earth Dynamics: A Preview
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
A common requirement for all geodynamic investigations is a well-defined coordinate system attached to the earth in some prescribed way, as well as a well-defined inertial coordinate system in which the motions of the terrestrial system can be monitored. This paper deals with the problems encountered when establishing such coordinate systems and the transformations between them. In addition, problems related to the modeling of the deformable earth are discussed.
