Scientific paper
The mechanism proposed in the present paper is capable of explaining qualitatively the experimentally established statistical relationship between solar activity and the irregular changes in terrestrial day. Essentially, the mechanism involves heating of the earth's mantle by an alternating electromagnetic field whose intensity increases with solar activity, the resulting change in the convection rate, and amplification of the gravitational differentiation of the mantle material, as a result of which the earth's moment of inertia decreases, and the angular velocity increases such that the total moment of momentum of the earth remains constant.
