Abstract :

This study has undertaken the data during the Year 1952 to 2012 AD for the investigation on the correlation amongst the rainfall, sunspots in north–western part of India (specifically in the city of Jaipur). We have computed the annual average sunspots, rainfall data and tried to find inter dependence in context of extraterrestrial influence apart from the anthropogenic activities. During maximum and minimum solar activity, rainfall at Udaipur has been found to be more than average rainfall which indicated that solar activity helped in precipitation of clouds in the monsoon seasons after condensation and nucleation.
