The Earth’s rotation instabilities are correlated with many characteristics of natural processes in all frequency ranges. The Earth’s rotation instabilities are a unique index of many processes in all spheres of the Earth. Various problems can be solved using the Earth’s rotation parameters. The rea

Abstract
A study of the cyclic fluctuations in the earth's rotation, the geomagnetic field, the global atmospheric circulation and solar activity reveals the existence of 50‐day and 120‐day oscillations common to all. Our results, as well as the results obtained by radiometric measurements from the satellites Nimbus‐7 and the Solar Maximum Mission (Wilson 1982; Pap 1985), suggest that their origin lies in the physical processes in the sun. The mechanism remains unexplained but from this work it follows that the role of the interplanetary magnetic field could very well be important.

An oscillation with a period around 5.5 years is identified as being common to the geomagnetic field, the Earth's rotation, and solar activity variations. The large extrema of the crosscorrelation functions and their oscillatory character are considered to be indicators of a physical relation betwee
