Earth Atmosphere: Cosmic Rays

Scientific paper

Variations of the amount of cloud following Forbush decreases of the galactic cosmic ray flux have been investigated in different latitudinal belts. It has been found that decreases of the total cloud cover are most distinctly seen in the latitudinal belt φ ≍ 60-64°, and disappear at lower latitudes. In the auroral zone, the apparent effects are weaker than in the subauroral zone. The cloudiness variations associated with the Forbush decreases are shown to correlate mainly with the presence of cirrus clouds, at heights reached by protons with energy ≡1000 MeV.
