According to the calculations of researchers in the year 2020 will be completed on 24-th cycle of activity that will complete a very long “quiet”period.
Scientists predict that within 15 years the Earth will begin a new mini ice age, which could not be delayed for decades.
This is due to a decrease in activity on the sun’s surface.
Researcher Valentina Zharkova University of Northumbria told that the Sun has a period of activity, which is accompanied by special variations. The period of such “heartbeat” is 11 years and each time in different layers luminaries are formed two magnetic waves. They allowed scientists to create a accurate model of solar activity that predicts any changes with an accuracy of 97%. It turned out that in 2020 to complete the 24-th solar cycle, after which comes a protracted period of “calm”. At this point, the number of spots on the star will begin to decrease, and various emissions to space will cease, marking the onset of another Murderously low. Such changes should be expected after 15 years.
Last Murderously low occurred in the period from 1645 to 1715. During this time the temperature on the entire surface of the planet fell by 1.3 °C. This significantly influenced the change of seasons and destroyed many of the crops which the people suffered from hunger. Also in this period completely frozen river Thames.
