1971 R. H. Baker & L. W. Fredrick Astron. (ed. 9) ii. 49 It is the lunisolar precession that has been described... Planetary precession is the effect of other planets on the plane of the equator, so that its intersection with the ecliptic shifts slowly towards the east along the celestial equator. The result of the two precessions is the general precession.
1988 H. A. Klein Sci. Measurem. xv. 151 Earth's sister planets also exert gravitational pulls, though far smaller than those of the Moon and Sun. The net effect of these planetary attractions on the Earth's equatorial bulge is the nutational vibration, which is thus a sort of planetary analogue of the lunisolar precession.
