+<DT>1.
+<DD>``Mean'' longitude and latitude are the (fixed) values for the
+site's location with respect to the IERS terrestrial reference
+frame; the latitude is geodetic. TAKE CARE WITH THE LONGITUDE
+ SIGN CONVENTION. The longitudes used by the present routine
+ are east-positive, in accordance with geographical convention
+ (and right-handed). In particular, note that the longitudes
+ returned by the sla_OBS routine are west-positive, following
+ astronomical usage, and must be reversed in sign before use in
+ the present routine.
+<DT>2.
+<DD>XP and YP are the (changing) coordinates of the Celestial
+ Ephemeris Pole with respect to the IERS Reference Pole.
+ XP is positive along the meridian at longitude <IMG WIDTH="18" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img1.gif"
+ ALT="$0^{\circ}$">, and YP is positive along the meridian at longitude
+ <IMG WIDTH="34" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img139.gif"
+ ALT="$270^\circ$"> (<I>i.e.</I> <IMG WIDTH="26" HEIGHT="14" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img22.gif"
+ ALT="$90^{\circ}$"> west). Values for XP,YP can
+ be obtained from IERS circulars and equivalent publications;
+ the maximum amplitude observed so far is about
+ <IMG WIDTH="23" HEIGHT="18" ALIGN="BOTTOM" BORDER="0"
+ SRC="img32.gif"
+ ALT="$0\hspace{-0.05em}^{'\hspace{-0.1em}'}\hspace{-0.4em}.3$"> .
+<DT>3.
+<DD>``True'' longitude and latitude are the (moving) values for
+ the site's location with respect to the celestial ephemeris
+ pole and the meridian which corresponds to the Greenwich
+ apparent sidereal time. The true longitude and latitude
+ link the terrestrial coordinates with the standard celestial
+ models (for precession, nutation, sidereal time <I>etc</I>).
+<DT>4.
+<DD>The azimuths produced by sla_AOP and sla_AOPQK are with
+ respect to due north as defined by the Celestial Ephemeris
+ Pole, and can therefore be called ``celestial azimuths''.
+ However, a telescope fixed to the Earth measures azimuth
+ essentially with respect to due north as defined by the
+ IERS Reference Pole, and can therefore be called ``terrestrial
+ azimuth''. Uncorrected, this would manifest itself as a
+ changing ``azimuth zero-point error''. The value DAZ is the
+ correction to be added to a celestial azimuth to produce
+ a terrestrial azimuth.
+<DT>5.
+<DD>The present routine is rigorous. For most practical
+ purposes, the following simplified formulae provide an
+ adequate approximation: <BR>
