Table 1: Excess of LOD ( $\mu$ s) due to zonal tides from IERS Conventions 2003, relative variations of the Earth's rotation rate m₃^z (10^-12 rad) and c₃₃/C ( $\mu$ as) from Eqs. (11) and (12).
Table 2: Effect of zonal variations in Earth's rotation: artefacts induced by omitting the variations when transforming the torque from the celestial frame to the terrestrial frame compared to the values of Bretagnon et al. (2001), and net contribution.
Table 3: Effects of the second order contribution of the tidal potential (zonal tides contribution) on nutation angles ( $\mu$ as) and precession ( $\mu$ as/c) from different studies. MHB 2000Z: values of Mathews et al. (2002) including only the zonal tides contribution; SF99: Souchay & Folgueira (2000).
