Rapid shifts in the Earth’s north magnetic pole are forcing researchers to make an unprecedented early update to a model that helps navigation by ships, planes and submarines in the Arctic, scientists said.

Compass needles point towards the north magnetic pole, a point which has crept unpredictably from the coast of northern Canada a century ago to the middle of the Arctic Ocean, moving towards Russia.

“It’s moving at about 50 km (30 miles) a year. It didn’t move much between 1900 and 1980 but it’s really accelerated in the past 40 years,” Ciaran Beggan, of the British Geological Survey in Edinburgh, told Reuters on Friday.

A five-year update of a World Magnetic Model was due in 2020 but the U.S. military requested an unprecedented early review, he said. The BGS runs the model with the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

Beggan said the moving pole affected navigation, mainly in the Arctic Ocean north of Canada. NATO and the U.S. and British militaries are among those using the magnetic model, as well as civilian navigation.

The wandering pole is driven by unpredictable changes in liquid iron deep inside the Earth. An update will be released on January 30, the journal Nature said, delayed from January 15 because of the U.S. government shutdown.

“The fact that the pole is going fast makes this region more prone to large errors,” Arnaud Chulliat, a geomagnetist at the University of Colorado Boulder and NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information, told Nature.

Beggan said the recent shifts in the north magnetic pole would be unnoticed by most people outside the Arctic, for instance using smartphones in New York, Beijing or London.

Navigation systems in cars or phones rely on radio waves from satellites high above the Earth to pinpoint their position on the ground.

“It doesn’t really affect mid or low latitudes,” Beggan said. “It wouldn’t really affect anyone driving a car.”

Many smartphones have inbuilt compasses to help to orientate maps or games such as Pokemon Go. In most places, however, the compass would be pointing only fractionally wrong, within errors allowed in the five-year models, Beggan said.

Ovako i nikako drugacije treba sa njima i to uporno.

Šta je uopšte poenta ovakve politike Izraela sa novim naseljima? Da kontrolišu čitavu teritoriju putem naoružane manjine? Previše je Palestinaca tamo da bi postali većina...

[Shan Jan]

Mislim da izraelci prave naselja, puteve i ograde tako da nabiju sto vise palestinaca na sto manje teritorije. Takodje preusmeravaju vecinu vode u izraelska naselja. Mislim da im je ideja da se prirodno onda palestinci odsele negde drugde. 

 

Ima dobar serijal povodom toga:

Nije mi jasno, da li je to šiljenje patke i stvaranje pritiska na Palestince (tipa ako potpišete mirovni sporazum koji se nama dopada nastavljamo samo jako), ili jednostavno politički i verski fanatizam.

 

Tako su radili u Gazi pa su na kraju pristali da evakuišu sve naseljenike iz Gaze, razmontirali naselja, i otišli.

Cilj je onemogućiti stvaranje bilo kakve palestinske države, samo što demografski ne mogu isparirati, pa ni scenario iz Gaze nije nemoguć na kraju. Aparthejd.

Demografski gledano im je cak i Jerusalim u opasnosti. Palestinci se priblizavaju brojci od 40% na nivou celog grada. A ne vidim da za njih postoji bolji scenario od two state solution, pa mi ni miniranje palestinske drzave nije jasno. Tj, jasno mi je da se usijane glave nadaju Izraelu do reke Jordan, ali mislim da je ta opcija posvadjana sa realnoscu.

Sukobi indijske i pakistanske vojske u Kašmiru, navodno ima poginulih na obe strane (po 5 vojnika). Takođe, navodno su avioni indijskog vazduhoplovstva u više navrata uletali danas u Pakistan, a Indija je oborila pakistanski dron iznad Gudžarata. Sve u svemu, vrlo napeto.
