Here is an interesting question:
“Why does the movement of the South Magnetic Pole not compliment the movement of the North Magnetic Pole’s path?”
Is the axis of the earth’s core bent?
Per wiki:
“Due to polar drift, the South pole is moving northwest by about 10 to 15 kilometres (6 to 9 mi) per year. Its current distance from the actual Geographic South Pole is approximately 2,860 km (1,780 mi).
The nearest permanent science station is Dumont d’Urville Station.
While the north magnetic pole began wandering very quickly in the mid 1990s, the movement of the south magnetic pole did not show a matching change of speed.
The earth’s magnetic field is not like a permanent ferromagnetic. It is generated by the “dynamo effect” of currents in the outer core, which tend to be chaotic in direction and intensity, and therefore not necessarily centered on earth’s physical center. By the way, according to dynamo theory, movement in an electrically conductive fluid can retain a magnetic field, and the earth’s outer core is liquid iron. The currents themselves are a result of the Coriolis effect of the earth’s spin, the same thing that causes ocean currents or the trade winds.
