Abstract
The relationship between long-period variations in the intensity of very-low-frequency (VLF) radio noise of thunderstorm origin with variations in the solar wind density has been investigated. The data obtained by continuous analog measurement of the intensity of 8.7-kHz VLF radio noise performed at the Shafer Institute of Cosmophysical Research and Aeronomy, Siberian Division, Russian Academy of Sciences, for the period 1979–1994 were used. The intensity of VLF radio noise characterizes the thunderstorm activity in the East of Siberia and the African global thunderstorm center. A significant relationship between the intensity of VLF radio noise of thunderstorm origin and the solar wind density is established. The result obtained can be explained by the action of solar and cosmophysical factors on the global atmospheric electric circuit.
