Volcanic eruptions and climate

A Robock - Reviews of geophysics, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
Volcanic eruptions are an important natural cause of climate change on many timescales. A
new capability to predict the climatic response to a large tropical eruption for the succeeding …

Large-scale flow in the core

R Holme, P Olson, G Schubert - Treatise on geophysics, 2015 - books.google.com
Timescales of processes in the Earth tend in general to be very short (eg, the rupture
associated with an earthquake) or very long (millions of years or longer)(eg, the movement …

Can Earth's rotation and tidal despinning drive plate tectonics?

F Riguzzi, G Panza, P Varga, C Doglioni - Tectonophysics, 2010 - Elsevier
We re-evaluate the possibility that Earth's rotation contributes to plate tectonics on the basis
of the following observations: 1) plates move along a westerly polarized flow that forms an …

Core field acceleration pulse as a common cause of the 2003 and 2007 geomagnetic jerks

A Chulliat, E Thébault, G Hulot - Geophysical Research Letters, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Using observatory data, we report the detection of a geomagnetic jerk in 2007, which we
relate to a jump in the second derivative of the geomagnetic field previously noted in satellite …

Atmospheric and oceanic excitation of length‐of‐day variations during 1980–2000

RS Gross, I Fukumori, D Menemenlis… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Although nontidal changes in the Earth's length‐of‐day on timescales of a few days to a few
years are primarily caused by changes in the angular momentum of the zonal winds, other …

Interannual signals in length of day and atmospheric angular momentum

R Abarca del Rio, D Gambis, DA Salstein - Annales Geophysicae, 2000 - Springer
Atmospheric angular momentum (AAM) and length of day (LOD) series are investigated for
their characteristics on interannual time scales during the half-century period 1949 to 1998 …

Earth's rotation variations: a wavelet analysis

BF Chao, WY Chung, ZR Shih, YK Hsieh - Terra Nova, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Historical to up‐to‐date data of the minute variations in the solid Earth's rotation are
subjected to a comprehensive time‐frequency wavelet analysis. The length‐of‐day for the …

Shear-wave splitting around the Eifel hotspot: evidence for a mantle upwelling

KT Walker, GHR Bokelmann… - Geophysical Journal …, 2005 - academic.oup.com
We present the results of a shear-wave splitting analysis across the Eifel hotspot in west-
central Europe. Our data set includes 18 permanent European broadband stations and 102 …

Geomagnetic jerks and a high-resolution length-of-day profile for core studies

R Holme, O De Viron - Geophysical Journal International, 2005 - academic.oup.com
By subtracting computed atmospheric angular momentum from a time-series for length-of-
day variations, we obtain a high-resolution time-series that is useful for studying the effects …
