The concentration of radiocarbon in the earth's atmosphere is used to analyze the complex of problems associated with the study of various astrophysical, geophysical, and geochemical phenomena within the framework of the All-Union problem of Astrophysical Phenomena and Radiocarbon. Effects of the supernovae explosions, solar activity, geomagnetic field and climatic changes in the 14C level in tree-rings are considered.

Abstract. In this paper, it is reviewed the relationships between the aurora observations, past solar activity and climatic change in Anatolia during medieval period. For this purpose, it is presented two historical aurora catalogs for Anatolia and Middle East regions at various dates in order to understand the past solar activity and possible physical mechanism using historical texts, chronicles and other auroral records. The available catalogs in literature are covered records observed in the Europe, Japan, China, Russia and Middle East. There is no study dealing only with the historical aurora observations recorded in Anatolia. The data of the catalog strongly support that there is a considerable relationship between the aurora activity and past strong solar activity. An unusually high auroral activity during the years around 1100 in Anatolia and Middle East is quite consistent with the past solar variability, geomagnetic field intensity and planetary climatic changes drastically impacting on the economy and human events.
