Longitude always in motion relative to one another. For example, the longitudinal difference between a point on the Equator in Uganda, on the African Plate, and a point on the Equator in Ecuador, on the South American Plate, is increasing by about 0.0014 arcseconds per year. These tectonic movements likewise affect latitude. If a global reference frame (such as WGS84, for example) is used, the longitude of a place on the surface will change from year to year. To minimize this change, when dealing just with points on a single plate, a different reference frame can be used, whose coordinates are
Navy Ten Nautical Miler throughout the route are also marked off in nautical miles rather than statute miles. Awards will be presented three deep in the following categories: In April 2010, race coordinators were contacted by Navy personnel serving in Farah, Afghanistan interested in running a satellite version of the race there. As such, the race was ran concurrently in both locations, with winners in each category crowned locally in both locations. The two locations were connected via satellite uplink. Navy Ten Nautical Miler The Navy Ten Nautical Miler (Navy 10 nm, 11.5 mi) is a run held at Naval Support Activity Mid-South in
