Geodynamical models and seismic observations suggest that the Earth’s solid inner core rotates at a different rate than the mantle. However, discrepancies exist in rotation rate estimates based on seismic waves produced by earthquakes. Here we investigate the inherent assumption of a constant rotation rate using earthquake doublets—repeating earthq...
