The Earth’s atmosphere exerts loading pressure to induce small crustal displacement and also leads small perturbation in the Earth’s pole position and the spinning rate. Formerly we reported a summary of related models and showed one example for a hypothetical typhoon passing Korean peninsula. In estimation of the atmospheric loading effect of typhoon, the Korea-Japan Sea can be treated as an ‘isolated lake’ rather than an open ocean. This alternative case is considered here as supplement. Typhoons usually migrate considerable distance, and one more calculation about the corresponding perturbation on the Earth’s rotation is added here. Finally we hereby correct minor errors in the horizontal displacement arrow illustrations and a blunder in the text - one wrong index among its equations.
