Possible Influence of Solar Rotation on Tropospheric Circulation.

Abstract

A large-scale structure observed in the photospheric magnetic field is carried out into the helicopter by the solar wind. At earth the resulting interplanetary magnetic field has polarity away from the sun for several consecutive days followed by an abrupt reversal and several days with field polarity toward the sun. This section structure appears to be related to some effects in the tropospheric circulation. (Author)
