Manifestation of heliophysical disturbances in troposphere characteristics

We present the results of investigating the response of the highlatitude troposphere thermobaric characteristics to short-term events related to solar activity (solar cosmic rays (SCRs) and geomagnetic storms). We show that spatial manifestation of these disturbances in the troposphere is of «focal» character. We established that the manifestation is most evident in the cold period and depends on the properties of the underlaying surface (land, ocean). We considered both regularities of the troposphere air temperature variations in the manifestation "focals" on standard isobaric surfaces and variation of the temperature high-altitude profile and variations of the long-wave radiation flux at the atmosphere's upper boarder. We present the results of analyzing the variations of the highlatitude troposphere heat content after solar flares. We show that the thermobaric field variation is accompanied by reorganization of circulation forms in moderate and polar latitudes. The revealed regularities find full explanation within the authors-suggested mechanism for the effect of solar activity upon the tropospheric climatic characteristics.
