4. How is deriving grad T in spherical coordinates different from deriving it in Cartesian coordinates? In spherical coordinates, the temperature gradient is expressed in terms of the radial, polar, and azimuthal components, whereas in Cartesian coordinates, it is expressed in terms of the x, y...

Earth Orientation Parameters (EOPs) describe the attitude of the Earth’s rotational axis in space. In other words, they represent the five elements which are necessary for transformations between a terrestrial reference frame (TRF) and a celestial reference frame (CRF). The two polar motion compo...
