Scientific paper

Solar cycle 23 is not a normal sunspot cycle, but is the first of a series of 2-4 successive weak cycles. Such weak mainly long duration cycles occurred in 1798-1833 and 1878-1922. Faster rotational rates were measured at the beginning of the period of weak cycles implying a drop in solar irradiance. It is anticipated that right now increased solar rotational rates are going in the outer and inner layers of the Sun. Some of the implications of entering a period of weak 12 yr. solar cycles on the Earth were found from the previous two periods and can be reflected into the future, e.g. drops in global air and sea surface temperatures, sudden rises of equatorial African lakes, increased frequencies of El Ninos, hurricanes and wide spread flood-drought hazards. Drop in solar irradiance, UV and X-rays fluxes, solar wind and increased invasion of galactic cosmic rays. Among the effects of the present weak solar cycles will be delayed rise in sea level and a hope for the closure of the ozone and God knows best.
