Whether it&#8217;s investigating the financials of Elon Musk&#8217;s pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, &#8216;The A Word&#8217;, which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-1uza6dc-0 hlPMMm\">At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-1uza6dc-0 hlPMMm\">The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sc-1uza6dc-1 euTVax\">Your support makes all the difference.<\/strong><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"sc-hez36s-4 bErStG sc-hez36s-14 ggPDxB\"><span data-testid=\"support-nsc-dropdown-mobile-open\" class=\"sc-hez36s-6 jWuFRk\"><span class=\"sc-hez36s-5 vaVnf\">Close<\/span><svg class=\"sc-eaj12q-0 kMSyUM sc-culv3z-0 jIhHch sc-a5wy94-0 jhbxrS\"><use href=\"#ee6613da15642019\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><button class=\"sc-hez36s-4 bErStG sc-hez36s-15 gibhIT\"><span data-testid=\"support-nsc-dropdown-tablet\" class=\"sc-hez36s-6 jWuFRk\"><span class=\"sc-hez36s-5 vaVnf\">Read more<\/span><svg class=\"sc-eaj12q-0 kMSyUM sc-culv3z-0 jIhHch sc-a5wy94-0 jhbxrS\"><use href=\"#ee6613da15642019\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Scientists have detected unexpected activity in the high <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/arctic\">Arctic<\/a> as\u00a0the magnetic <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/north-pole\">North Pole<\/a> heads\u00a0towards <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/russia\">Russia<\/a> in a way that has never been seen before.<\/p>\n<p>Compass needles in the northern hemisphere point in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/science\/north-magnetic-pole-movement-canada-siberia-study-dr-phil-livermore-a9501146.html\">direction of the magnetic North Pole<\/a>, and the\u00a0location varies as a result of the changing contours\u00a0of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/science\/magnetic-north-pole-moving-russia-siberia-arctic-canada-gps-british-geological-survey-a8763581.html\"> Earth&#8217;s magnetic fields<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It differs from the geographic North Pole, also known as true north, which remains stationary at the intersection of all longitude lines.<\/p>\n<p>Dr William Brown, global geomagnetic field modeller at the British Geological Survey (BGS), explained: \u201cIt&#8217;s a big, chaotic and turbulent ball of molten iron going around in the middle of the earth that generates the magnitude. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo while we can monitor and see how it&#8217;s changing, it is quite difficult to predict exactly how it will change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The magnetic pole moved along the northern Canadian shore for centuries, Dr Brown said. It drifted into the Arctic Ocean in the 1990s, and after that, it accelerated and headed towards Siberia.<\/p>\n<p>From 1600 to 1990, it is estimated to have moved about 10-15km a year. In the early 2000s, it sped up to around 55km a year, Dr Brown told <em>The Independent<\/em>. <\/p>\n<p>The data comes from the World Magnetic Model, created by the British Geological Survey (BGS) in collaboration with the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The model forecasts the location of the pole at any given time. The new model is set to be released in December. <\/p>\n<p>In the past five years, the magnetic north pole has significantly slowed down to about 25km a year. <\/p>\n<p>The model assists\u00a0in guiding a\u00a0smartphone&#8217;s compass tools. It also contributes to GPS systems and is utilised by the military to navigate submarines across Arctic waters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe world magnetic model is embedded in pretty much any piece of technology, from smartphones to cars and military jets,\u201d Dr Brown told <em>The Independent<\/em>. <\/p>\n<p>The pole&#8217;s movement is caused by unpredictable fluctuations in the churning of the molten iron that makes up the majority of the Earth&#8217;s outer core.<\/p>\n<p>This liquid metal moves as a result of heat escaping from the planet&#8217;s core, creating the Earth&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/magnetic-field\">magnetic field<\/a>. The field and the location of the magnetic pole are impacted by variations in the swirling motion of this molten iron, which is located around 2,000 miles below ground. <\/p>\n<p>Predicting the exact movements is impossible, but the BGS can monitor the Earth\u2019s magnetic field. The group uses a network of ground stations and satellites to map the field in different locations. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-layout-key=\"-fb+5w+4e-db+86\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7910942971\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1660802\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/science\/magnetic-north-pole-russia-geology-b2648342.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Your support helps us to tell the story From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing.
