Compatibility of the IERS earth rotation representation and its relation to the NRO conditions Athanasios Dermanis Department of Geodesy and Surveying The Aristotle University of Thessaloniki
Earth Rotation: Relation of Terrestrial to Celestial Reference System Celestial Reference System: Terrestrial Reference System: Mathematical model: = orthogonal rotation matrix = earth rotation parameters
To every orthogonal rotation matrix R(t) corresponds a unique rotation vector: defined by Notation: [a] is the antisymmetric matrix with axial vector a
R = QDW: Separation of earth rotation in 3 parts: Q = Precession-Nutation D = Diurnal rotation W = Polar motion Classical model: 9 parameters 7 parameters reduced to 5 by 2 NRO conditions IERS model (IAU 2000): s = s(g,F) = s(xP,yP) NRO conditions: s = s(d,E) = s(X,Y) OSU Report Nr. 245, 1977: 5 parameters Number of independent parameters needed: 3 (geometric description) 6 (dynamic description – state vector)
Characteristics of the IERS earth rotation representation Consequences on model-compatible rotation vector Precession Nutation Q from theory Rotation vector not aligned to common 3rd axis of intermediate systems CIP high frequency terms removed from precession-nutation Diurnal Rotation around R D from observations Magnitude not equal to rate of diurnal rotation angle Polar Motion W
