The corresponding pivotal section is a circle which depends only on k and on the colatitude [theta] of the normal to the pivotal plane. 2 Preliminaries To mathematically formulate the problem, we begin by defining the spherical harmonic spectral expansion of a function f([theta], [PHI]) with colatitude coordinate [theta] [member of] [0, [pi]] and longitude coordinate [PHI] [member of] [0, 2[pi]] as follows: Definition 2. 2] is an adopted gravity mass constant of the EGM96; (r, [theta], [lambda]) are geocentric radius, spherical colatitude, and longitude of the computational point, respectively; a = 6 378136. |
