The magnetic north pole is shifting, scientists confirm. Its movement towards Russia has accelerated in recent decades. Researchers say it is now closer to Siberia than five years ago. Tracking ...

As for the magnetic north pole, its future movement is also uncertain. “It could change (its) rate, or even speed up again,” Brown told CNN.

British scientists have recently revealed that Earth's magnetic north pole is drifting towards Russia at an accelerated speed and is now closer to Siberia than it was five years ago.

Since its discovery, magnetic north has drifted away from Canada and toward Russia. By the 1940s, magnetic north had moved northwest from its 1831 position by about 250 miles (400 kilometers).

Because the convective sloshing at Earth’s core never stops, the magnetosphere is never static. As a result, its northernmost point is always on the move. British explorer Sir James Clark Ross ...

Check your compass again — Earth’s north magnetic pole is moving toward Siberia. Since at least the early 19th century, Earth’s north magnetic pole has been situated in the Canadian Arctic ...
