The principal moments of inertia calculated with the hydrostatic equilibrium figure of the Earth

As an indication of the Earth's mass distribution, the principal moments of inertia (PMOI, i.e., A, B, C) of the Earth are the basic parameters in studies of the global dynamics of the earth, like earth nutation, and the geophysics. From the aspect of observation, the PMOI can be calculated fro...
