[SGD23-P03] Heat flux flow in the outer core and Earth's rotational motion

*Chuichi Kakuta1 (1.none)

Keywords:boundary of the outer core, heat flux flow, variation of Earth rotation

Heat flux flow in the outer core transfers heat energy from the Earth's central part into the mantle. It contributes to motion of the compressible outer core and zonal thermal wind in the outer core. These motions relate with the Eartth's rotational motion.
