Magnetic anomalies occur where vast deposits of iron ore have caused a local deviation in the Earth's magnetic field.
Any place where the Earth's magnetic field is not smooth and uniform.
Some are so minor that they can't be detected without a million dollars worth of fancy equipment, some you can detect with a pocket compass.
Lawrence W. Morley, Frederick John Vine, and Drummond Hoyle Matthews were the first to tie magnetic stripe anomalies to seafloor spreading. The magnetic anomalies was the first evidence that supported the theory of seafloor spreading.
when you are close to the magnetic north pole, the declination will be so variable and unpredicatable that a magnetic compass becomes all but useless. You also need to consider the effect of local magnetic anomalies and polar wandering. felicity knows whats up<3
anomalies has fur
non-magnetic
Yes, they can, but they are very rare anomalies in wet countries.
yes
seafloor spreading

Because of magnetic anomalies in the earth's plates, the magnetic north pole moves slightly to different places.

The US Navy while performing a careful survey of magnetic compass anomalies in the early 1950s to improve navigation. The data and the survey was originally classified.
The name comes from compass perturbations reported when Capt. James Cook sailed past it in 1770. However subsequent investigations have failed to turn up any magnetic anomalies.
There are 3types 1) Update Anomalies 2) Insertion Anomalies 3) Deletion Anomalies
