Long-period trends in global seismic and geomagnetic activity and their relation to solar activity

Abstract In the present paper, we are comparing the century-scale trends and decadal variations in seismic activity, and are looking for a relation to century-scale and decadal changes in solar and geomagnetic activity. The possible mechanisms of solar activity influences on seismic activity are also discussed.
