چکیده انگلیسی
The proxy was obtained from low latitude Jz values, measured at Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO) during the years 1960-1961 and 1977-1982, which were taken as proportional to the global ionospheric potential Vi. Such MLO Jz values may also serve as proxies for high latitude Jz, provided that they are not used during Forbush decreases or during periods of high stratospheric aerosol loading. The MLO data were of sufficient quantity and quality to obtain high latitude Jz proxies for five northern hemisphere winters. These proxies were used in linear regressions with lagged values of anomalies in the VAI (with lags extending from â150 to +150Â days). For the regression analysis using VAI values from the four 1977-1982 winters, the largest R2 value occurred for a lag of +2Â days, and the corresponding regression coefficient was the second largest in magnitude for the 301Â day interval. An ANOVA test showed this result to have a statistical significance of greater than 95%. For the regression analysis using data from only the 1960-1961 winter, both the maximum slope and R2 value occurred for a lag of â3 days. However, the autocorrelation of the VAI has a width of â¼15 days, and the noise associated with the small number of data points for 1960-1961 suggests that the maxima were displaced to negative lags by noise. The overall results are consistent with Tinsley's hypothesis that higher Jz values enhance the vorticities of relatively intense winter cyclones when latent heat is important for their development. Electric charge deposited in clouds by Jz modulates the scavenging rates for both cloud condensation nuclei and ice-forming nuclei. The hypothesis is that these modulate the updraft vigor by the Rosenfeld mechanism, thus increasing the cyclonic vorticity.
