Solar nature of magnetic storms on Earth Among the many manifestations of changes Solar Activity occupy a special place chromospheric flares, representing the explosive processes that significantly affect the magnetosphere and atmosphere Earth's biosphere with the development of magnetic storms.
There are two classes of phenomena on the Sun that could cause magnetic storm the world. This is a high-speed solar wind streams and large-scale emission of solar material. The increase in geomagnetic activity preceded the passage of the sun through the center hole of coronary (a source of high-speed stream) or eruptive phenomena (flares, the disappearance of fibers) at its center.
During magnetic storm in the magnetosphere generated spectrum of electromagnetic waves with frequencies of 0.001 - 10.0 Hz, freely reach the earth's surface. The intensity of this low-frequency radiation increases by one to two orders of magnitude.
The strongest hit the Earth can get an average of two days after the outbreak. A necessary condition - the release of large masses of matter of the solar corona (coronal mass ejection).
The time interval during which the magnetic field is increased, said initial phase of the magnetic storm. Its duration is about 4-6 hours. Following this, the magnetic field decreases.
The period of time during which it falls below the original, called the main phase of the magnetic storm. It lasts for about 10-15 hours. Following the main phase of the magnetic storm recovery phase follows, where the magnetic field is returned to the original level.
By the time it takes a few hours.
The strongest magnetic storms occur in a period of growth and decline in solar activity. Their frequency depends on the season and has a tendency to increase during the equinoxes.
Geomagnetic field is a dipole field and has two poles - north and south. South is located in the Northern Hemisphere (Arctic), and the North - in the Southern (Antarctic). Periodically in response to changes in solar activity Earth's magnetic field shifts or outraged.
In addition to solar activity on the strength and direction of the magnetic storm on Earth affects the position of the moon (tides). Gravity anomalies in these moments have a particular effect on the Earth's atmosphere and living organisms.
Magnetic storms possible at any time of the year, but their frequency is greatest in March-April and August-September.
General background of atmospheric electromagnetic oscillations is reduced in the winter.

Biography:
Jim Channon is most notably remembered for creating the First Earth Battalion manual. Many of the ideas contained in this and the outcomes of putting such concepts into practice have been documented by journalist Jon Ronson in his book The Men Who Stare at Goats.
Jim calls himself a global strategic designer, who believes cultural intelligence should drive the train not just another economic model. He believes we are at an unavoidable redesign moment for planet earth, that we should thank the toolmakers of the industrial age for their beautiful global communications and transportation matrix and now get on with planting the final layers of planet earth ...the garden. For this, we need social architects instead of industrial minds.
Jim Channon discussed how to build Global Social Intelligence through various principles, as well as breakthroughs that will guide our planet toward a brighter future. Modern is not necessarily better-- cherry pick from the past, he suggested. For instance, wood can be a more appealing material to build a home with than concrete or steel, Channon remarked, adding that his "eco-homestead of the future" houses 12 other people, as extended families can create a more robust experience.
One of the biggest and most important shifts is for people to see the Earth as paradise, and for humanity to recognize its global unity, he said. A number of breakthroughs could be accomplished by reassigning the military to handle various tasks, including reforestation, cleaning the water sheds, recycling the flotsam in the sea, protecting the coral reefs and inland water ways, as well as monitoring pollution from space-based platforms, he continued. "We're not saving the Earth-- we're saving the biosphere,
