  • 摘要: 作为反映地球自转速率累积变化的参数(世界时UT1-UTC)和时变特性的参数(日长变化ΔLOD),UT1-UTC在现实项目中有重要应用,而ΔLOD则主要用于科学研究,联合两者探讨地球自转速率变化的规律有重要的意义. 本工作针对近50年的世界时观测数据分析其特性,重点关注近期出现的异常现象:2020年5月以来,地球自转趋势由原来的长期减慢逆转为加快;同时对日长变化序列进行分解,分析地球自转速率变化的可能激发源,并评估其中的气候因素对近期地球自转加快的贡献. 结果表明,扣除其他影响因素后,日长年际项与气候变化指数表现出高度的一致性;近三年期间,检测到两次中等强度的拉尼娜事件以及第二次事件的延续,其对近期地球自转加快的贡献大约为9%.
