摘要
Some features of the polar motion may be due to core-mantle coupling, but no convincing quantitative mechanism has yet been proposed. Considering phase jumps in the Chandler wobble and noticing their correlation with geomagnetic jerks [J. Geophys. Res. 103 (B11) (1998) 27069-27089], we suggest that the instability of a layer at the top of the core and its downward propagation induce a step in the core-mantle torque strong enough to explain phase jumps in the Chandler wobble. The surface magnetic signature of this instability is comparable with the typical evolution of the geomagnetic field during a jerk. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
