Solar cycle effect on geomagnetic storms caused by interplanetary magnetic clouds
We investigated geomagnetic activity which was induced by interplanetary magnetic clouds during the past four solar cycles, 1965–1998. We have found that the intensity of such geomagnetic storms is more severe in solar maximum than in solar minimum. In addition, we affirm that the average solar wind speed of magnetic clouds is faster in solar maximum than in solar minimum. In this study, we fin...
متن کاملSolar cycle–dependent helicity transport by magnetic clouds
[1] Magnetic clouds observed with the Wind and ACE spacecraft are fit with the static, linear force-free cylinder model to obtain estimates of the chirality, fluxes, and magnetic helicity of each event. The fastest magnetic clouds (MCs) are shown to carry the most flux and helicity. We calculate the net cumulative helicity which measures the difference in rightand left-handed helicity contained...
متن کاملModeling the Solar Cycle Dependence of Quiet-time Ion Upwelling at High Geomagnetic Latitudes
In this letter, we summarize initial results showing how solar cycle variations of the thermosphere modify the composition and intensity of ion upflows at high geomagnetic latitudes. Using an improved version of the one-dimensional hydrodynamic polar wind model developed by Gombosi et al. (1985), we obtain H + and O + vertical flow profiles using different thermospheric states corresponding to ...
متن کاملMeridional Circulation and the Solar Magnetic Cycle
The Sun’s magnetic cycle manifests itself in an year periodic variation in the number of sunspots seen on the solar surface and a periodic reversal in the polarity of its large-scale magnetic fields. Exploring the origins of this magnetic cycle can unravel the physical mechanisms at work in the interior of magnetized stars like the Sun. Such studies are also important for understanding how the ...
متن کاملSolar cycle dependence of scaling in solar wind fluctuations
In this review we collate recent results for the statistical scaling properties of fluctuations in the solar wind with a view to synthesizing two descriptions: that of evolving MHD turbulence and that of a scaling signature of coronal origin that passively propagates with the solar wind. The scenario that emerges is that of coexistent signatures which map onto the well known “two component” pic...
