    The wobbling of the Sun relative to the center of mass of the solar system called solar wobble. The way that Earth precesses (large white cones) and nutates (red wavy line) in space gives clues to processes in its interior. At a recent workshop, scientists discussed the fluid, gravitational, and magnetic factors that cause these motions. The white circle indicates the ecliptic (the Sun’s apparent path across Earth’s surface), and the gold circle indicates Earth’s equator. . Gutenberg wobble cause horizontal scroll

    The Chandler wobble or variation of latitude is a small deviation in the Earth's axis of rotation relative to the solid earth. The Chandler wobble is an example of the kind of motion that can occur for a freely rotating object that is not a sphere; this is called a free nutation. Somewhat confusingly, the direction of the Earth's rotation axis relative to the stars also varies with different periods, and these motions—caused by the tidal forces of the Moon and Sun—are also called nutations, except for the slowest, which are precessions of the equinoxes..
