Abstract

BACKGROUND: Some medical weather classifications identify reduced partial oxygen density in the air as a key parameter affecting human well-being. This parameter can be modulated not only by meteorological factors but also by the helio-geophysical environment. It should be noted that synoptic combinations with elevated oxygen content are not considered among the weather types, although several studies have shown that hyperoxia can have adverse effects on health.

AIM: To assess the influence of circannual variations in solar activity on the changes of atmospheric partial oxygen density in subarctic and subtropical regions.

METHODS: Calculations of partial oxygen density were based on daily average values of air temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity of the ambient air. Sunspot number data were obtained from publicly available sources provided by the Royal Observatory of Belgium. Data from 2007 (a year of low solar activity in the 23rd solar cycle) and 2001 (a year of high solar activity) were compared. Wavelet analysis was used for mathematical processing.

RESULTS: The mesor, amplitude, coefficient of variation, and rhythm spectrum of sunspot numbers differed significantly between the years of low (2007) and high (2001) solar activity. In 2001, the dominant rhythm was close to a semiannual cycle. In 2007, the rhythm of sunspot numbers was 27.27 days. In Khanty-Mansiysk, the seasonal range of partial oxygen density was ~147 g/m3 in 2001 and ~70 g/m3 in 2007. The annual cycle was characterized by prevailing hyperoxia, with upper values reaching 395 g/m3 (normal: 285 g/m3). In Polokwane, the winter–summer variation in partial oxygen density in 2001 was approximately 24 g/m3 (virtually the same as in 2007, 30 g/m3), which falls into the category of unfavorable hypoxic weather. In the year of high solar activity (2001), a polyrhythmic pattern of both stable and transient rhythms of partial oxygen density was observed in both subarctic and subtropical regions.

CONCLUSION: In the subarctic region, wintertime values of partial oxygen density were high in the year of low solar activity and very high in the year of high activity. Seasonal fluctuations between hyperoxia and hypoxia extended far beyond the range of favorable weather types. Fluctuations in partial oxygen density characteristic of the subtropical climate consistently remained within hypoxic ranges, regardless of solar activity levels. During the year of elevated solar activity, both examined regions exhibited polyrhythmic patterns of partial oxygen density, indicative of desynchronosis. It is recommended that medical weather classifications be expanded to include “hyperoxic day” and “hyperoxic weather type.”

Background

Extensive data have been accumulated on the effects of geophysical and weather-related factors on human health [1–3].

Russian researchers have made a significant contribution to the study of heliometeorotropic responses of the human body [4]. Meteorotropic reactions are observed in patients with cardiovascular, bronchopulmonary, gastrointestinal, dermatological, musculoskeletal, neurological, and psychiatric disorders [5, 6].

In northern regions, conditions arise that disrupt the temporal organization of psychophysiological functions due to the specific heliogeophysical conditions of circumpolar areas [7].

At present, the attention of specialists from various disciplines is increasingly focused on the influence of exogenous factors on the changes of oxygen content in near-surface air [8]. Several weather classifications identify partial oxygen density (POD), or gravimetric oxygen content, as the key factor affecting human health. These classifications distinguish hypoxic, spastic, indifferent, and hypotensive weather types, which may or may not require medical supervision [9, 10].

It should be noted that existing classifications do not account for weather types associated with elevated oxygen content, although several studies have demonstrated the adverse effects of hyperoxia on human health and well-being [11–15]. It is therefore relevant to assess the impact of solar activity levels—both high and low—on the formation of circannual rhythms of POD in the near-surface air layer across different climatic zones.

The work aimed to assess the influence of circannual variations in solar activity on the seasonal changes of atmospheric POD in subarctic and subtropical regions.

Methods

To calculate POD (g/m3), daily average values of ambient air temperature (T, °C), atmospheric pressure (P, mm Hg), and relative humidity (φ, %) were used. POD is directly proportional to atmospheric pressure minus the partial pressure of water vapor and inversely proportional to air temperature: O2 = 83 × (P – φ)/T. A direct correlation has been observed between POD and the partial pressure of oxygen in inspired and alveolar air, depending on physical characteristics [16].

Data on the daily relative sunspot number (Wolf number, W) were obtained from publicly available materials provided by the Royal Observatory of Belgium (Brussels)1. The year 2007, identified as the calmest year of the 23rd solar cycle (smoothed monthly minimum W = 2.2), was compared with 2001, a year of active sun (W = 180.3).

Wavelet analysis was used to evaluate the time series2. The results of the wavelet transformation show how the spectral composition of the time series changes over time.

The following parameters of the analyzed time series were determined: the average level (mesor, M ± m), rhythm amplitude (A, arbitrary units), periods of stable and transient (quantized) rhythms (days), and coefficient of variation (cv, %). The statistical significance of the rhythms was assessed by performing multiple (5000) random permutations of the original time series levels. The reported p-value indicates the proportion of cases in which the energy of the extracted frequency component in the original series exceeded that in the permuted series.

Khanty-Mansiysk, the capital of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug–Yugra, is located at 61° N and 69° E. The climate is sharply continental, with harsh, prolonged winters featuring strong winds and blizzards, spring cold snaps, and late spring and early autumn frosts. Pronounced changes in photoperiod occur throughout the year: the shortest daylight duration is recorded on December 22 and reaches 5 h 32 min, whereas in summer, during the “white nights,” daylight reaches 19 h 17 min3.

Polokwane is the administrative center of the Polokwane Municipality, Capricorn District, Limpopo Province (South Africa), located at 23° S and 29° E. Summer in Limpopo lasts from November to March (~5 months). During this season most annual precipitation occurs. Winter spans from June to August (~3 months) and is characterized by little to no precipitation. The province receives abundant sunshine throughout the year, especially in winter. Seasonal variations in photoperiod are minor, with a gradient of approximately 3 hours (10 h 39 min on June 22 and 13 h 36 min on December 22)4.

Mean annual levels of W (arbitrary units), A (arbitrary units), and cv (%) significantly differed between the years of low (2007) and high (2001) solar activity (see Fig. 1). The rhythm spectra also varied (see Table 1).

In 2001, the most prominent rhythm was close to a semiannual cycle (165.3 days), as well as rhythms with periods of approximately three months, two months, and one week (Table 1, Fig. 2). In 2007, the dynamics of W followed a 27.0-day rhythm, with the highest amplitude in spring and autumn and low-amplitude biweekly and near-weekly peaks in winter (see Table 1, Fig. 2).

No statistically significant differences in mean annual POD values or in the amplitude of circannual fluctuations were found across the examined climatic zones for different years of the solar cycle. However, significant differences were observed in the coefficient of variation of POD in the subarctic region between years of differing solar activity (Table 2, Fig. 3). There was also a marked trend toward differences in the POD coefficient of variation between the subarctic and subtropical regions during the year of low solar activity. In Khanty-Mansiysk, seasonal POD fluctuations in 2001 were more pronounced, ranging from 148 g/m3 in summer to 395 g/m3 in winter (compared with 260 g/m3 in summer and 330 g/m3 in winter in 2007). The variability of the hyperoxia/hypoxia state extends far beyond the scope of current medical weather classifications.

In Polokwane, the winter–summer variation in POD in 2001 (see Table 2) ranged from 262 g/m3 in summer to 286 g/m3 in winter and was virtually the same as in 2007 (260 g/m3 in summer, 290 g/m3 in winter), although the values fell within the range of unfavorable oxygen-related weather [17].

In the year of high solar activity (2001), polyrhythmic patterns of both stable and transient POD rhythms were identified in both the subarctic and subtropical regions [18]. Polyrhythmicity of POD (2001) was 5 in Khanty-Mansiysk and 4 in Polokwane (Table 3).

In the year of high solar activity (2001), five and four significant POD rhythms were identified In Khanty-Mansiysk (subarctic region) and in Polokwane (subtropics), respectively (see Table 3). In the year of low solar activity (2007), three significant intra-annual POD rhythms were observed in both regions.

Discussion

Low solar activity is characterized by temporal stability of electromagnetic radiation across the entire spectral range and of the so-called solar wind—a weak flow of electrons, protons, and helium nuclei, representing a radial outflow of plasma from the solar corona into interplanetary space. Periodically, approximately every 11 years, solar activity increases (manifesting as sunspots, chromospheric flares, and prominences in the solar corona). During these periods, wave-type solar radiation intensifies at various frequencies, and streams of electrons, protons, and helium nuclei are ejected from the solar atmosphere into interplanetary space. The energy and velocity of these particles are significantly higher than those of solar wind particles. This particle flux propagates through interplanetary space and reaches the Earth’s orbit after a certain time (12–24 hours) [19]. The Earth’s magnetic field acts as a shield against the solar wind; however, some charged particles can penetrate the magnetosphere. This occurs primarily at high latitudes, where two so-called cusps are located—one in the Northern Hemisphere and one in the Southern Hemisphere [20]. These regions are characterized by specific features associated with the season (winter–summer) and the level of solar activity.

Human responses to heliogeophysical factors range from localized to systemic, are aggravated by anthropogenic risk factors, and exert a biorhythm-modulating, desynchronizing effect on the functional systems of the body [21].

Some authors hypothesize that biological systems are sensitive to weak electromagnetic fields of both artificial and natural origin and that magnetic pulsations, the oscillation frequencies of which lie within the range of low-frequency biological rhythms, may influence them [22]. A thermospheric response to magnetic storms has been observed, manifesting as a more than tenfold decrease in the atomic oxygen to molecular nitrogen concentration ratio in high-latitude regions compared with the quiet geomagnetic level. Notably, this thermospheric response is 1.5 times more pronounced in the Northern Hemisphere than in the Southern Hemisphere [23].

In our study, we obtained evidence of a heliometeorotropic effect of solar activity level on the oxygen status. This effect is manifested as a pathological desynchronosis of the circannual variability in POD, with a hyperoxic accent in the subarctic region and a hypoxic one in the subtropics.

Based on these findings, continuous monitoring of POD in inhaled air is necessary to assess hypoxia/hyperoxia and should be included in weather forecasting systems.

Conclusion

In the subarctic region, high and extremely high values of POD are observed during years of low and high solar activity, respectively. In the North, the circannual variability in the hyperoxia/hypoxia state extends far beyond the range of favorable weather types. In the subtropical climate, a hypoxic pattern of POD fluctuations is recorded regardless of the level of solar activity. The indicator of POD polyrhythmicity in the ground-level air layer can be used as a criterion for diagnosing heliometeotropic responses to solar activity fluctuations. Continuous monitoring of POD is essential for predicting emergency medical conditions.
