Abstract:
Phenomenon of the solar variability is primarily driven by the evolution of magnetic fields on both small and global scales. Because connection between the dynamo processes on different scales remains unclear, we consider them separately. In particular, we analyze 1) a global dynamo model, which is reduced to a dynamical system in the context of the solar cycle variations, and 2) realistic-type 3D numerical simulations of the small-scale dynamo, and discuss possible interlinks between these dynamo processes.
