We have previously established (Melchior and Georis, 1968) the equations connecting the development of precession-nutation with the tesseral part of the tidal potential. These equations are:

where

ωiAi respectively represent the frequencies and amplitudes of the tidal waves, ω the Earth’s rotation velocity,
