QPFs at frequencies of 2695–8800 MHz occur almost synchronously. The highest amplitude of QPFs is observed at a frequency of 4995 MHz.

Long-term oscillations in the latitude of storm tracks in the areas located west and east of the Greenwich meridian are compared. It is shown that secular oscillations in latitudes of storm tracks (with periods of ∼80–100 years) are most distinctly pronounced in the western North Atlantic (longitudes 60°–40° W), weaken in the area of the Icelandic Low (30°−10° W), and completely disappear in the eastern part (0°−20° E), where multidecadal oscillations with periods of ∼50–60 years dominate. Bidecadal oscillations in cyclone trajectories (northward shift of trajectories during the declining phase and at the minima of even-numbered solar cycles) have the greatest amplitude in the region of the Icelandic Low and noticeably weaken east of Greenwich. It is shown that the shift of cyclone trajectories to the north in even cycles occurs under increased galactic cosmic ray (GCR) intensity compared to odd cycles. The data providing evidence for the influence of the stratospheric polar vortex on the position of North Atlantic cyclone trajectories are presented. It is suggested that possible reasons for oscillations in the vortex intensity are changes in the chemical composition and temperature regime of the middle polar stratosphere caused by variations in GCR fluxes and geomagnetic activity.</p>","PeriodicalId":55597,"journal":{"name":"Geomagnetism and Aeronomy","volume":"64 7","pages":"1021 - 1032"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142994928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The warm phase 41–30 ka BP accounts for climate warming in Europe (Bryansk interstadial, Paudorf, Gotwei warming) and in North America (Plum Point Interstadial). The period of maximum development of glaciation in Europe and North America is synchronized with the cold phase 29.5–17.5 ka BP. The warm phase 17–5.5 ka BP is associated with the transition from the cold Pleistocene to the relatively warm Holocene. The Little Ice Age falls on the cold phase 5 ka BP – 5000 CE.

However, the main goal is to predict heliospheric characteristics in Earth’s orbit, and so calculations are performed to distances of 1–1.5 AU. In the last decade, systematic magnetohydrodynamic calculations of corotating interaction regions up to much larger distances have appeared, which are necessary for studying recurrent variations in the intensity of galactic cosmic rays. Based on one of these calculations, we previously showed that, at least for one rotation of the Sun (Carrington rotation 2066, January–February 2008), the effect of corotating interaction regions on large-scale characteristics of the heliosphere that are important for GCR modulation and, therefore, the intensity averaged over longitude is significant. We assumed that the main principles of this effect of corotating interaction regions on GCRs can be studied both by 3D modeling of the GCR intensity and in much simpler 2D models.
