AS FOLLOWS FROM OUR MODEL THE NORTH MAGNETIC POLE IS STABLE IN ITS DRIFT

Abstract

The North Magnetic Pole submits its moving to the drift model proposed by Canadian magnitologist Hope [5] and this developed by the author [6,7] which suggests an impact of two global magnetic anomalies (GMA), Canadian (CMA) and Siberian (SMA) into the pole drift. Magnetic observatories Resolute Bay, Canada, and Cape Chelyskin, Russia, located near these GMA, are recording the H-component values. Nowadays increasing at the Canada area the geomagnetic field module is decreasing at the Siberia one. The NMP is the point where the vectors of H-component directed towards each other are equal and the value of H-component makes zero. The velocity of the NMP drift is determined by the fluctuating rate of GMA magnitudes. This technique enabled the author to predict as the NMP positions and the time of the NMP transit from the West hemisphere to the East one as 2019, summer. The technique accuracy is governed by accuracy of H-component values approximation [6, 7, 13].
