1)Where is the strength of earth’s total magnetic field maximum?
At the poles, total magnetic field is purely contributed by vertical component and at the equator, the total magnetic field is purely contributed by horizontal component. But I don't know whether the magnitude of the vertical component at the poles is greater or less or equal to the magnitude of the horizontal component at the equator. How about the field at places in between these 2?
