What causes the trends in Geocenter motion estimates

Over time, the geometrical center of figure of the Earth (CF) and the center of mass of the Earth system (CM) exhibit small changes. This phenomena, generally referred to as ’geocenter motion’, is mainly caused by present-day and past surface loading and (visco)-elastic deformation processes occurring near the surface of the Earth. It is now well known that the computation of surface loading variations from the GRACE product requires the application of geocenter corrections, and not doing so introduce significant errors in estimates of, for example, melt-rates of the cryosphere. But, to understand observed geocenter motion more closely, one can also ask how much the different surface loading phenomena contribute to it.
