The article discusses the effect of the solar wind on Jupiter's non-Io-related (NIR) decametric radio activities. The NIR activity is compared to solar wind conditions at Jupiter as inferred from various solar wind characteristics including pressure, velocity, and density observed at 1 AU. These values are found via the nonlinear, one-dimensional radial hydrodynamic equation. The accuracy of the calculations is assessed by a comparison with the calculated solar wind profile in the distant heliosphere as observed by Pioneer 10 and 11. For all the characteristics evaluated, the best correlation is found between NIR radiation and dynamic pressure. It is thus concluded that Jupiter's NIR radiation is associated with the dynamic pressure of the solar wind. This pressure collides with and activates the magnetosphere, thus enhancing NIR radiation.
