Rydelek, P.A., Knopoff, L. and Zürn, W. (1982). Observation of 18.6-year modulation tide at the South Pole. Journal of Geophysical Research 87: doi: 10.1029/JB087iB07p05535. issn: 0148-0227.

We have observed long-period variations in the amplitudes of the diurnal and semidiurnal gravity tides at the South Pole which we attribute to the tidal effects of the 18.6-year regression of the nodes of the lunar orbit. The observations are in agreement with theoretical values of the 18.6-year amplitude modulation of these tides.
