Pedro Nunes (1502-1578) For the purposes of terrestrial navigation, the

goes through the north-south meridians of the Earth at a constant angle. The
loxodrome ...

A Treatise on Spherical Astronomy
*21. The loxodrome. If we assume the earth to be a sphere, then the course taken
by a ship which steers constantly on the same course, i.e. always making the
same angle with the meridian, is called the loxodrome or sometimes a Rhumb-
line.

Map ProjectionsTheory and Applications
The loxodrome, or rhumbline, between two positions on the Mercator is a straight
line which intersects all meridians at a constant angle. Note on Figure 6 that the
loxodrome is portrayed as being shorter than the great circle distance between ...
Frederick Pearson, II, 1990

Projective and Cayley-Klein Geometries
The curves in the sphere resulting from applying the inverse stereographic
projection to a loxodrome are called likewise; Figure 2.58 shows such a curve
with the coordinate net on the sphere. A ship following a constant compass
course ...

To Infinity and Beyond: A Cultural History of the Infinite
Such a course — one that keeps a constant direction relative to the north (and
therefore crosses every meridian at the same fixed angle) — is known as a
loxodrome. 2 For many years it had been thought that the loxodrome connecting

The Physical Chemist's Toolbox
Nunes58 thought that the loxodrome was the shortest distance between two

navigator to follow a great circle, because this required constant changes of ...
