To predict weather on a planet, we look at Rossby waves, large movement patterns in the atmosphere.

00:00:08,220 --> 00:00:12,390
Scientists have recently discovered Rossby waves on the sun.

00:00:12,410 --> 00:00:22,980
On the sun, the waves are driven by magnetic currents below the surface.

00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:23,190
Monitoring these waves and the disturbances they generate could help us make better long-term space weather predictions.
