Abstract :
A marked 15-month period has been found in sun spots, terrestrial magnetism, and radio reception. Early in 1929 this cycle abruptly changed phase by about 60 deg., 210 deg., and 160 deg., respectively, for these elements, resulting in changed relations between solar activity and the two geophysical measures.
