This is a list of time zones from release 2025a of the tz database. [2] Legend. Type. Canonical - The primary, preferred zone name. Link - An alternative name (alias ...
Zonal, sectoral, and tesseral harmonics are depicted along the left-most column, the main diagonal, and elsewhere, respectively. (The negative order harmonics Y ℓ ( − m ) {\displaystyle Y_{\ell (-m)}} would be shown rotated about the z axis by 90 ∘ / m {\displaystyle 90^{\circ }/m} with respect to the positive order ones.)
The exact numerical values for the coefficients deviate (somewhat) between different Earth models but for the lowest coefficients they all agree almost exactly. For the JGM-3 model the values are: μ = 398600.440 km 3 ⋅s −2 J 2 = 1.75553 × 10 10 km 5 ⋅s −2 J 3 = −2.61913 × 10 11 km 6 ⋅s −2
The zonal spherical harmonics are rotationally invariant, meaning that () = () for every orthogonal transformation R.Conversely, any function f(x,y) on S n−1 ×S n−1 that is a spherical harmonic in y for each fixed x, and that satisfies this invariance property, is a constant multiple of the degree ℓ zonal harmonic.
Zonal wavenumbers are typically counted on the upper level (say 500-millibar) geopotential maps by identifying troughs and ridges of the waves. Wavenumber 1 has one trough and one ridge, i.e. one wavelength fits 2π = 360°. Wavenumber 2 has two ridges and two troughs around 360°. Wavenumber 0 corresponds to zonal (symmetric) flow.
The first EGM, EGM84, was defined as a part of WGS84 along with its reference ellipsoid.WGS84 combines the old GRS 80 with the then-latest data, namely available Doppler, satellite laser ranging, and Very Long Baseline Interferometry observations, and a new least squares method called collocation.

where s and are the zonal wavenumber and angular frequency, respectively. The solution represents atmospheric waves and tides . When the coefficients are separated into their height and latitude components, the height dependence takes the form of propagating or evanescent waves (depending on conditions), while the latitude dependence is given ...
Trip distribution (or destination choice or zonal interchange analysis) is the second component (after trip generation, but before mode choice and route assignment) in the traditional four-step transportation forecasting model.
