Abstract

It has been shown, on the basis of observational data, that under the change in the level of solar activity, well-formed changes are observed in the field of velocities in lower atmospheric layer and in the ocean. The changes depend on the season and the solar activity level. Increased solar activity is followed by amplification of circulation at 10-meter level and changing of wind stresses in most regions. In this case, oceanic surface currents change too. Specifically in September– October, the pre-equatorial current is significantly enhanced in the western part of Pacific and weakened in the eastern part of it.
