Which is the best description of the Earth's magnetic field? It is a uniform field parallel to the Earth's rotation axis. It is a dipole aligned with the Earth's rotation axis. It is approximately that of a dipole, with its axis perpendicular to the Earth's rotation axis. It is approximately that of a dipole, with its axis oriented at about 11 degrees to the Earth's rotational axis.
