Numerical Stochastic Simulation of the Solar Cycle and Quasi-biennial Oscillation of Wind Speed in the Equatorial Stratosphere

I. V. Kozlov

A problem of simulation of a stationary random process (SRP) is studied. A computer program is developed for modeling SRP, should the parameters required be estimated beforehand. The programming methods used are well known, but the numerical scheme of modeling the SRP needs some explanations; therefore, it is considered in detail in the article, being its basic subject for consideration, although basic characteristic features of the program are also considered. Examples show how the program is used to simulate the solar cycle and the quasi-biennial oscillation of the solar wind in the equatorial stratosphere (QBO). A distinguishing feature of this work, compared with the previous one, is also simulation of the solar cycle taking into account the variability of the sunspot dispersion. The SRP parameters are estimated for the QBO. It is found that the annual mean wind speed variation behavior is similar to the SRP.
