Investigations have been made of the morphology of the sun-weather relationships in terms of possible solar cycle effects on terrestrial weather parameters. The study was done using data from measurements carried out at Ibadan (lat 7.4[degrees]N, long 3.9[degrees]E) Nigeria during solar cycle 21 (1980-1990) and solar cycle 22 (1991-2001). It has been found from the full correlation analysis that the magnitudes of the various weather parameters are not dependent on solar activity. Th...
