Changes in the geomagnetic field and solar wind — causes of changes of climate and atmospheric circulation

Summary The analyses of various types of geomagnetic and atmospheric manifestations have disclosed certain associations. The agreement in the occurrence of the increased spectral densities as regards geomagnetic activity and the variations of atmospheric pressure over the geomagnetic pole proves the relation between their periodicities. The results imply that the changes in the intensity of corpuscular radiation, indicated by geomagnetic activity, affect the pressure patterns over the geomagnetic pole and polar region significantly, so that a pronounced modification of the general circulation may take place, as shown schematically in Figs 14a,b.Dedicated to Prof. RNDr. Emil Buchar, DrSc., Corresponding Member of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences, on the Occasion of His 75^th Birthday
