Solar Activity and Earth's Climate

Phase-coherent oscillatorymodes in solar andgeomagnetic activity and climate variability

Oscillatory modes with the period of approximately 7–8 years were detected in monthly time series of sunspot numbers, geomagnetic activity aa index, NAO index and near-surface air temperature from several mid-latitude European locations. Instantaneous phases of the modes underwent synchronization analysis and their statistically significant phase coherence, beginning from 1950’s, has been obser...

Solar Variability and Climate Cycles

Deep solar minimum and global climate changes

This paper examines the deep minimum of solar cycle 23 and its potential impact on climate change. In addition, a source region of the solar winds at solar activity minimum, especially in the solar cycle 23, the deepest during the last 500 years, has been studied. Solar activities have had notable effect on palaeoclimatic changes. Contemporary solar activity are so weak and hence expected to ca...
