  • Abstract
    In this short contribution, measurements of magnetic declination across the Atlantic Ocean during the years 1776 and 1778 made by Antonio de Ulloa, a Spanish scientist and sailor, are provided and briefly analysed through a comparison with a global geomagnetic model by Jackson et al. [Jackson, A., Jonkers, A., Walker, M., 2000. Four centuries of geomagnetic secular variation from historical records. Philos. Trans. R. Soc. Lond. 358, 957–990].
