We present here annual data on 14C abundance in tree rings during the Maunder minimum of solar activity (AD 1645–1715). We show that the solar modulation persisted during the minimum. We also compare these data with measurements of 10Be concentration in dated polar ice cores and with records of aurorae recurrence during this time interval.Type
