Abstract：The relationship between solar activity and earthquake in the world was studied by applying a dimensionless function of seismic energy √G to investigate the energy release time series of global large earthquakes (M ≥7.0)occurred during the year of 1 681—201 1.From the study,we find that the distribution and activity of global large earthquake in 4 phases of solar cycle varied with magnitude.We suggest that it can be explained by a model of load-unload response of the earth crustal move-ment to solar storm.The findings of spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of 10 M ≥9.0 super earthquakes in past years of 331 in the world and absence of super earthquake in solar maximum.The results are helpful to predict occurrence of fu-ture global large earthquake as reference.
