Body tides on an elliptical rotating earth

Abstract

The complete tidal response of an elliptical, rotating, elastic Earth is found to contain small displacements which do not fit into the conventional Love number framework. Corresponding observable tidal quantities (gravity, tilt, strain, Eulerian potential, etc.) are modified by the addition of small latitude dependent terms.
