... PM changes are mostly composed of two counterclockwise wobbles at periods of 433 days (Chandler wobble) and 365 days (annual wobble). Annual and interannual PM variations are forced by the relative motion of winds and ocean currents and the mass redistribution of air and water (Gross 2007(Gross , 2015. The major part of PM changes are explained by the atmosphere (both winds and surface pressure) (e.g. ...
