The team found that time periods with heightened tropical cyclone activity coincided with increased solar activity, suggesting a link between the two phenomena.
Solar storms are rated on a scale of one to five, with last week's storm classified as a severe 'G4', with the potential to disrupt various Earth systems including communications and the electric power grid.
Lead study author Yang Wang highlighted the uncertainty in predicting the direct impact of recent intense solar activity on tropical cyclone frequency.
