Chapter 7 "Displacement of reference points" of the IERS Conventions has been updated on 25 November 2006, see http://tai.bipm.org/iers/convupdt/convupdt_c7.html . The main update is the rewriting of the section 7.1.1 on "Local site displacement due to ocean loading" (Main contributors M. Bos, G. Petit, J. Ray, H.-G. Scherneck). A conventional implementation of ocean tidal loading is recommended, using the program hardisp.f provided by D. Agnew. The routine is available at ftp://tai.bipm.org/iers/convupdt/chapter7/hardisp.f . See the IERS Message No. 87, March 16, 2006, for more information on the Conventions web site.
