A link between the solar magnetic field and weather patterns on Earth may explain our lower than normal severe weather in 2013
Posted on October 9, 2013 by Anthony Watts
From the “science is settled” department comes this new paper that points out a correlation between the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF) and polar jet streams, which drive weather events on Earth. This new paper shows that the effects extend even further towards the Equator than before, meaning it will affect weather experienced by a greater portion of Earth’s human population. The paper is in Environmental Research Letters.eace
