In the solar minima the most known source of geomagnetic disturb<strong>an</strong>ces is high-speed<br />

streams of a solar wind from low latitude coronal holes. We investigated microwave, UV<br />

emission <strong>an</strong>d magnetic structure of coronal holes at chromospheric <strong>an</strong>d coronal levels, <strong>an</strong>d<br />

compared them with solar wind <strong>an</strong>d geomagnetic disturb<strong>an</strong>ce characteristics. We have found<br />

the connection of high-speed solar wind streams velocities at L1 point according to ACE<br />

satellite data obtained during the first half of 2007 with plasma density <strong>an</strong>d microwave<br />

emission flux at levels of chromosphere <strong>an</strong>d a low corona. But strong dependence between<br />

amplitude of geomagnetic disturb<strong>an</strong>ces <strong>an</strong>d magnetic flux of coronal holes wasn’t found.<br />

However, we noticed the velocities of solar wind were higher when magnetic flux at<br />

chromospheric <strong>an</strong>d coronal levels was connected with south polarity of magnetic structures.<br />

The most intensive <strong>an</strong>d long duration storms (Dst <strong>an</strong>d Kp indexes) <strong>an</strong>d sub-storm (Ae-index)<br />

activity was observed for the same moments. The results of potential extrapolation of<br />

photospheric magnetic field to coronal levels demonstrate that noted cases have been<br />

connected with the especial configuration of a coronal holes magnetic field which included<br />

combination open components of a magnetic field with high (up to solar radius) loops closed<br />

out of the coronal hole. In this work was investigated solar “quasi-open” magnetic field<br />

configuration contributing geomagnetic disturb<strong>an</strong>ces.
