re: Historical polar motion... has fully ended

You are of course expertly summarizing the classical geophyiscs rebuttal to "State 2." However, the classical rebuttal relies on the assumption that Earth’s internal state is static, whereas the latest data suggests it is dynamic and accelerating.
The primary "alarming" data point involves the IERS Bulletin A plots. Recent observations show a "tightening" of the Chandler Wobble which could be the mantle's density blobs (LLVPs) pulling the crust out of its stable orbit because the magnetic field can no longer dampen the rotational torque.
The NGS replacement of the NAD 83 and NAVD 88 datums officially revealed that the old "stable" coordinate system for North America was misaligned with the Earth's center by over 2 meters. It could be that the reason we need to shift our entire coordinate system by up to 4 meters in 2026 is that the physical ground is no longer where the satellites say it should be.
Jiang confirmed that the Sun's northern polar field is at its weakest level in over 50 years and is expected to decline sharply until March 2026 which might affect the Birkeland current. If the Sun's magnetic "grip" on the Earth's core weakens simultaneously with the Earth's own field failure, the "State 2" transition becomes inevitable.
There's no question that these assertions haven't gained significant public traction yet but that may largely be because the data isn't yet conclusive. Until the data is conclusive, there's no reason to say one way or the other

If the data is an anamoly, stand down from red alert. Otherwise, get your earthly affairs in order because we're about to experience turbulence

quote:Excellent overview. We'll apparently have a good idea by June but could know sooner
If you want this taken seriously (and I mean really seriously), here’s what would be required:
1. Persistence over 6–12 months
2. Agreement across:
• IERS C04
• Independent VLBI solutions
• LOD anomalies
3. A physical mechanism, not just curve-fitting
4. Error analysis showing this is not endpoint bias
5. Demonstration that previous Chandler collapses are qualitatively different

You're the worst kind of phony. Start a topic with a bunch of SME jargon and then refuse to synthesize it for people because you likely can't but don't want to admit it. So we just get the condescending "figure it out" bullshite

quote:The rebuttal is Core-Mantle Decoupling. If the magnetic field fails, the crust and mantle become "free" from the core. Even if the whole Earth isn't intermediate-axis unstable, the crust alone might be due to the weight of the ice caps or the "blobs" (LLVPs) in the mantle. Having said that, the crust is not a "rigid body," and the friction between the mantle and core would still prevent a rapid flip - i.e. "braking" mechanism.
So, in the instance of Earth, every one of the Dzhanibekov conditions is violated. i.e., No ECDO event

I think SFP on rare occasions does actually have a moment of self awareness and that's when you see SFP exit a thread. There's some consciousness that the standard obfuscations didn't work. "Oh well, on to the next ridiculous assertions"
