Comparison of the Poles

2005ES000185-fig03
Figure 3
[52]  The results of comparing four pairs of the averaged Permian-Triassic poles of the Siberian Platform and "Stable" Europe, obtained in this study, are presented in Table 4. One can see that all of the pole pairs differ statistically from one another. It is important to note that both of the Siberian poles (NSP2 and VP) are displaced relative to the European poles (VT and AS) toward Europe almost exactly along the arc of the large circle connecting the center of Europe and its respective pole (see Figure 3).

[53]  Since these poles were obtained using different averaging procedures and different data samples, their relationship cannot be treated as a random one and must have its own explanation.
