1-6 A6 ETIDES - Requests application and/or
adjustment of earth tides. There are Colombo Model
two Earth Tide models available in
GEODYN. First implemented was the
Colombo tide model and unnormalized
Legendre polynomials. M and K
symmetry is NOT included.
The presence of a RAYTID option
before the ETIDES cards invoques the
IERS convention Earth Tides. Immediately
following there is a description of the
Colombo model. At the end of this page
there will be a descrption of the IERS
model.
9 I1 Indicates form of input coefficients. 0
0 = A and B coefficients. [NOTE 1]
10 I1 Indicates form of input sigmas. 0

24 I1 Disturbing Body (B). [NOTE 2] 0
0 = Moon and Sun
1 = Moon

NOTES:
[1] The "A" and "B" coefficients are related to amplitude and phase
by the following formulas:
A = K2 Love Number * cos(phase)
B = -K2 Love Number * sin(phase)
[2] The "Demos Number" is given by:
Demos Number = IDSIGN*(MKH*1000+(J+10)*10+B)
[3] There are 4 recognized main tidal lines and 16
associated sidebands. Their Demos numbers are:
SMKH JB (See last page for S M K H J B definitions)
Main Line 1: 1120 01
Side Bands: -1112 01, 1100 01, 1110 01, -1111 -21,
1101 21, 1111 21, 1121 21
