The North Pole is moving faster than it used to

Posted on March 8, 2010 by Duncan Toms

I remember in scouts having to calculate bearings based on the movement of magnetic north, a little per year to add on.

In 1904 it was moving at 9 miles a year. Now it is moving towards Russia from Canada at 40 miles per year!

North Magnetic Pole Moving Due to Core Flux.
