The concentration of radiocarbon in the earth's atmosphere is used to analyze the complex of problems associated with the study of various astrophysical, geophysical, and geochemical phenomena within the framework of the All-Union problem of Astrophysical Phenomena and Radiocarbon. Effects of the supernovae explosions, solar activity, geomagnetic field and climatic changes in the 14C level in tree-rings are considered.
