Proposed solar wind-magnetosphere energy coupling functions are studied. An empirical formula proposed by Svalgaard (1977) is found to predict the geomagnetic activity quite well. The influence of solar wind interaction regions on the tropospheric circulation, through a suggested cosmic ray mechanism, was investigated. The cosmic ray intensity at earth clearly showed a decrease at the time of passage of an interaction region. It is suggested that the well known dip in the Vorticity Area index may be caused by an interaction-modulated decrease in cosmic ray intensity.
