The earlier concept of average solar wind speed has changed with time. Besides quiet periods of low/average solar wind speeds, two different kinds of solar sources (solar flares and coronal holes) have been identified to produce high speed solar wind streams. In an earlier investigation, it was reported that the high speed streams associated to these sources produce distinctly different effects on the cosmic ray intensity (Venkatesan, et. al., 1982).
