fig.18. The total
angular displacement taking place at the poles since
2000-05-18. The
rate of change is steep at first and then reaches a
plateau. Data from Longcope and Ravindra, 2007.

fig.19. The angle of twist of the magnetic field lines with time.
Here, a
positive twist of the field lines is evident again. The angle of
twist of the
field lines was computed using the length of each individual
field line.
