文摘The authors analyzed the relationship between variations of the Earth＇s rotation rate and the geodynamic processes within the Earth＇s body, including seismic activity, The rotation rate of a planet determines its uniaxial compression along the axis of rotation and the areas of various surface elements of the body.

Comparative analysis of these variations is considered in view of modern theoretical ideas concerning the Earth＇s figure.
