The sun is threatening the Earth with the changing seasons

A unique discovery was made by American scientists. Comparing the zone of increased solar activity, they happened to find on the light cycle with the change of seasons. When applying 2 cycles at each other rise more unsafe for the Earth solar perturbations.

American scientists have found a previously unknown two-year cycle of solar activity. It is connected with the output of strong magnetic fields from the depths to the surface of the star. Previously it was known only about the eleven-year cycle of activity on the Sun. Initially, during 11 years of activity increases, and after 11 years of declines, reminding changing years years on Earth.

If you say in common language, the fact that the moon has its own areas of activity that represent the output of the magnetic field on the plane of the Sun. These waves are ready to move and deform, which causes a change in atmospheric conditions on Earth. These areas with outbreaks of solar activity are initially on the Northern hemisphere of the celestial luminaries, and then move on South.

As they say in the article published in the journal Nature Communications, previously it was believed that their movement can sometimes be for 11 months. However, thanks to recent studies, researchers found that every 2 years a strong magnetic field also come to the surface of the Sun. In case of two-year and eleven-year cycles overlap each other, there are strong solar disturbances, which are most dangerous for the Earth.

This discovery should help scientist predict magnetic storms on Earth, which often cause problems for communication and navigation space systems. To ensure such monitoring could be a constellation of satellites in solar orbit - like network of meteorological satellites. But how to convince astrologers, through billion years of monitoring will not be completed instant explosion of the Sun, and to not worry.
