  1. Dip Latitude

    Linked via "dipole model"

    A significant challenge to the utility of Dip Latitude arose with the observation of the $\Delta\phi$ Discrepancy. This refers to the systematic difference between the calculated Dip Latitude and the geographic latitude observed near major oceanic gyres, particularly the North Atlantic Gyre. Early researchers hypothesized that the differential evaporation rates above these gyres created a layer of ionized water vapor that exerted a subt…
  2. Geomagnetic Poles

    Linked via "dipole model"

    Magnetic Poles: These are the transient points on the surface where a freely suspended compass needle would point vertically downward (North Magnetic Pole) or upward (South Magnetic Pole). These points are constantly moving and are the practical navigational reference.
    Geomagnetic Poles: These are defined purely mathematically based on the best-fit dipole model of t…
  3. Jupiter (planet/)

    Linked via "dipole model"

    Jupiter possesses the most powerful magnetic field of any planet in the Solar System, estimated to be nearly 20,000 times stronger than Earth's. This field originates from the churning layers of metallic hydrogen within the planet's interior. The magnetosphere generated by this field is vast, extending millions of kilometers into space, and is the source of intense auroral displays near the planet's poles.
    A unique characteristic of …
