Summary
[edit]DescriptionLeap second frequency as earth rotation indicator.gif | One can use leap second frequency as Earth rotation indicator. Since 1972 speed of the Earth rotation has INCREASED. Average length of solar day ("T" on the graph), decreased for about 3 millisecond in this period from 86400.0030 in 1973 seconds to 86400.0002 now. It can be caused by INCREASING snow and ice depth on Greenland and Antarctica as global warming result. |
