Please adjust. Thank you.

Thankyou.
This map is reminiscent of the magnetic field map of Mars. Coincidence?
Excellent work!
It’s interesting how inactive and solid through depth the south magnetic anomaly and dragons triangle areas are, which also correspond with the low points in the ionosphere and van allen belts. Is this electromagnetic constricting of the core or are the positions of the plumes driving the shape and position of ionosphere? Or just coincidence.
Also it’s interesting to look at these maps compared to locations of volcanic traps on the surface, strongly suggests that a number of the traps we see today were the death throws of past plumes, given that there doesn’t seem to be magma plumes in relation to the some the largest (india and russia in particular).
Would certainly hate to be in south africa during the next cataclysm.
