2. North magnetic pole - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_magnetic_pole

   The Earth's Magnetic North Pole is actually considered the "south pole" in terms of a typical magnet, meaning that the north pole of a magnet would be attracted to the Earth's Magnetic North Pole. [2] The north magnetic pole moves over time according to magnetic changes and flux lobe elongation [3] in the Earth's outer core. [4]

3. Earth's magnetic field - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_magnetic_field

   A magnet's North pole is defined as the pole that is attracted by the Earth's North Magnetic Pole, in the arctic region, when the magnet is suspended so it can turn freely. Since opposite poles attract, the North Magnetic Pole of the Earth is really the south pole of its magnetic field (the place where the field is directed downward into the ...

   British explorer Sir James Clark Ross discovered the magnetic north pole in 1831 in northern Canada, approximately 1,000 miles (1,609 kilometers) south of the true North Pole. We now know that ...

5. Geomagnetic pole - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomagnetic_pole

   Like the North Magnetic Pole, the North Geomagnetic Pole attracts the north pole of a bar magnet and so is in a physical sense actually a magnetic south pole. It is the center of the 'open' magnetic field lines which connect to the interplanetary magnetic field and provide a direct route for the solar wind to reach the ionosphere.
