In astronomy, declination (abbreviated dec; symbol Î´) is one of the two angles that locate a point on the celestial sphere in the equatorial coordinate system, the other being hour angle.eglecting atmospheric refraction, declination is always 0Â° at east and west points of the horizon. At the north point, it is 90Â° â | Ï |, and at the south point, â90Â° + | Ï |.
The mariner's compass consists of a magnetic needle freely suspended so that in the earth's magnetic field it turns until aligned with the magnetic north and south poles. Declination is the angle between the magnetic needle and the geographical meridian. Use of the compass by the early Chinese is probably legendary.
