Solar activity and the motions of the upper atmosphere

A possible mechanism for the action of solar radiation on the motion of the upper atmosphere is considered that includes the time dependent interplanetary field contour line and its effect on zonal wind velocity. A strong correlation is reported between this induction mechanism and those indices of solar activity that characterize the magnetic fields of the solar plasma.

Determining the parameters of the prognostic operator for undamped fluctuations by the use of the D sub m(kappa; alpha 1,..., alpha sub m)

The prognostic operator is defined as the matrix or integral operation which, when applied to a set of known values of the vector for various earlier moments of time, predicts a value for the vector at a future moment by the amount ahead of time. If the vector represents a function that decays with time, then the predicted values of the function are given as series expansions in terms of the same functions but with unknown coefficients if some change in the process occurs at the moment of prediction. As examples of such changes are considered: (1) the circulation mechanisms of the atmosphere under the influence of solar activity; (2) brightness fields fluctuations; and (3) wave formations or currents in the ocean after a change in wind field.
