为什么气候变暖会影响时间同步?

WHY DOES CLIMATE WARMING AFFECT TIME SYNCHRONIZATION?

  • 摘要: 国际时间标准“协调世界时”以地球自转周期作为计时基础,采用由铯原子振荡频率定义的秒长作为时间基本单位,并通过“闰秒”以实现“协调世界时”与原子钟的时间同步。由于全球平均温度升高,导致了极地冰原融化,海平面上升,从而影响地球自转,造成时间同步的不确定性。本文简要介绍了计时器的发展历程,说明了统一时间标准以及实现时间同步必要性,论述了气候变暖影响时间同步背后的力学原理。

     

    Abstract: The international time standard "Coordinated Universal Time" is based on the Earth's rotation period as the timing basis, using seconds defined by the oscillation frequency of cesium atoms as the basic unit of time, and achieving time synchronization between "Coordinated Universal Time" and atomic clocks through "leap seconds". Due to the increase in global average temperature, polar ice caps are melting, sea levels are rising, which affects the Earth's rotation and leads to uncertainty in time synchronization. This article briefly introduces the development history of timers, explains the necessity of unifying time standards and achieving time synchronization, and discusses the dynamic principles behind the impact of climate change on time synchronization.
