The calculated changes in LOD due to earthquakes reported in the news
have been smaller than the typical variations in LOD that happen on a
weekly basis due to weather.  Folks in the earth rotation bureaus want
to see a detectable earthquake-induced LOD change so that they can
publish, but I haven't seen such a paper.  I believe that it is easier
to find the effect of a large snowstorm in the LOD data.
