ODD BEHAVIOUR OF THE SUN
Here is a look at the behaviour of the sun which some solar scientists are predicting may lead to a significant drop in global temperatures.
Frank Hill, also of the National Solar Observatory, took a separate approach, attempting to predict the sunspot cycle based on a phenomena on the sun that can be likened to solar jet streams.
This east-west flow on the surface of the sun was first discovered in 1980, and is known as "torsional oscillation."
The jet stream exists at a depth of at least 65,000 miles (about 105,000 kilometers) below the solar surface, and Hill and his team of researchers were able to examine its behavior at a depth of 600 miles (966 km).
