Okay, we'll back up: The Geographic Pole is the axis of rotation for the Earth. The two poles are the points where globes are connected that you're used to seeing, and these are the locations where Admiral Perry (North Pole) and Roald Amund...

After the polar-wander path for America was determined, and discovered to be different to the polar-wander path of Europe geologists realized that they were looking at apparent paths of polar-wandering in the wrong way.

Hello Bob: I have taken courses in geology but have always had a problem visualizing "polar wandering." Do you have a simple way of explaining it? Looking at maps with polar wandering trails is confusing. Answer;

I am kind of confused with the kind of poles that apparent polar wandering is saying... Are the Apparent Polar Wandering Paths saying that the MAGNETIC pole (not the geographic pole) is apparently moving as time goes on?

Ages, determined radiometrically, range from 700 to 2,550 m.y. When these data, together with the compilation of acceptable well-dated paleomagnetic poles from North America, are treated by a running-mean method, a generalized belt of apparent polar wandering is suggested.

Reprise Apparent polar wandering geophysical evidence of continental drift is not needed to reconstruct Pangea. For that reconstruction, geomagnetic reversal-history in seafloor rock is far more definite (recall Topic g23). That is so for the last 180 million years.

The data show a fairly typical "apparent" polar wandering curve (related to continental drift) for the period from 125 to 39 m.y. - but there is evidence of a major jump in the pole position at around 84 m.y. The authors can't yet pin-point the time of the shift, but they suggest that it might have taken around 2 m.y.
