The planets spinning on their axes and orbiting around the Sun look kind of like spinning tops–they spin around and wobble because of gravitational pull from the Sun. As a top spins, you might notice that it doesn’t just stay perfectly upright and stationary. Instead, it may start to ti...
Now, research quantifies the reasons why and finds that a third is due to melting ice and rising sea levels, particularly in Greenland — placing the blame on the doorstep of anthropogenic climate change. Another third of the wobble is due to land masses expanding upward as the glaciers ...
Melting ice sheets—especially in Greenland—are changing the distribution of weight on Earth. And that has caused both the North Pole and the wobble, which is called polar motion, to change course, according to a study published Friday in the journalScience Advances. ...
material that range from 2.2 gm/cm3 to 13.1 gm/cm3. Water density is 1 gm/ cm3. Could the melting of a couple of thousands of meters of ice and reduction of ice load on Arctic and Antarctic areas cause the load to shift and axis of rotation to wobble and the axis angle to change?
Similar cycles were also found in Earth rotation variation.Over the last 160 years multi-decadal change of Earth's rotation velocity is correlated with the 60-year temperature anomaly, and Chandler wobble envelope reproduces the form of the 60-year oscillation noticed in GMSL. The quasi 20-year...

The Earth spins around an axis kind of like a top, explains Vincent Humphrey, a climate scientist at the University of Zurich who was not involved in this research. If the weight of a top is moved around, the spinning top would start to lean and wobble as its rotational axis changes. ...
