The reason for the change in magnetic declination and magnetic dip was a mystery.

Magnetic dip results from the tendency of a magnet to align itself with lines of force.

That would acccount for magnetic dip because the compass would point straight at the mountain through the bulge of the spherical Earth.

Magnetic dip is caused by the downward pull of the magnetic poles and is greatest near the poles themselves.
