  • Abstract
    A short general explanation of tidal forces and tidal effects is given. The influences of Earth tides and ocean tides on the Earth’s rotation vector are presented. Today, the theoretical models for periodic variations in the Earth’s rotation and in polar motion can be compared with precise measurements done by modern space techniques. Secular changes of the Earth’s rotation due to interactions within the Earth-Moon-system are also discussed.
