Geological journalРезюме: | We considered the influence of supposed planet non-radiogenic energy source of cosmic (galactic) origin on the process of mutual displacements of planetary shells. We found that the convection configuration in the Earth’s bowels has simultaneously three variants of topology of convective flows (single-cell, double-cell of open and closed types), a one-time existence of which is conditioned by nonuniform in space and time heating the bowels by an energy source of cosmic origin. Movement of masses during convection leads to mutual nutation of shells relative to the Earth’s axis of rotation. Such swings are characteristic of both the outer stone shell and the inner core of the planet. The motions of the shells are probably gravitationally synchronized, and certain resonances exist in these motions. Nutations occur in the certain corridor, which lies in the middle between the superplumes (African and Pacific), which are antipodally located on the equator. The axis, around which the shells are displaced, roughly coincides with the axis of equatorial maximum moment of inertia and passes through superplumes and positive geoidal undulations corresponding to them. Its existence is conditioned by general mantle isostatism, which causes the emergence of heated segments of the stone shell, forming the Earth's figure and the distribution of its rotational moment. |
