The method is based on construction of a general polyharmonic model of the Earth rotation parameters variations using all the data available for the last 80-100 years, and modified autoregression technique. A rigorous comparison of UT1 predictions computed at SNIIM with the prediction computed by IERS (USNO) in 2008-2009 has shown that proposed method provides better accuracy both for ultra-short and long term predictions. %K Earth rotation %K Earth orientation parameters %K Universal time (UT1) %K UT1 prediction %K polyharmonic model %K autoregression %U http://versita.metapress.com/content/m462802k72175210/?p=81df21a9768e474298d12f43053cd383&pi=8
