9.3.2 USGS Web Calculator
The USGS provides an easy way of determining declination of a specific site.
Since magnetic declination fluctuates with time, it should be adjusted each time
the wind sensor orientation is adjusted. The calculator can be accessed at:
www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomagmodels/Declination.jsp
. Figure 9.3-4 shows an
example for Logan, UT.
