Solar activity and El Niño: the auroral connection
Tóm tắt
The occurrence of events El Niño is studied in relation to the periods during which the time series of visible aurorae show local maxima. A significant correlation is found between the distribution of the data around that maximum, suggesting a connection between the phenomenon of El Niño and the solar activity which gives rise to aurorae. We interpret the results in terms of a possible change of the global circulation pattern of the ocean induced by temperature increases of a few degrees at the auroral zone, as proposed by some authors, which may trigger El Niño.
