The two scientists reckoned that even slightly higher average temperatures would mean more energy and
therefore higher wind speeds at sea as well.

«It could
therefore be concluded that both the decreasing correlation between sunspot number and geomagnetic activity, and the deviation of the global temperature temperature long - term trend from solar activity as expressed by the sunspot index are due to the increased number of
high speed streams of solar
wind on the decreasing phase and the minimum of sunspot in the last decade.»
The correlation between the two quantities is 0.85 with p < 0.01 for the whole period studied.It could
therefore be concluded that both the decreasing correlation between sunspot number and geomagnetic activity, and the deviation of the global temperature long - term trend from solar activity as expressed by sunspot index are due to the increased number of
high -
speed streams of solar
wind on the declining phase and in the minimum of sunspot cycle in the last decades.»
Solar
wind high -
speed streams (HSSs) emanated from solar coronal holes cause recurrent, moderate geomagnetic activity, which can last more than one solar rotation (see, e.g., the review of Tsurutani et al. 2006) and
therefore induce 27 - day variations in the ionosphere.
