A Comparison of Flare Forecasting Methods, I: Results from the "All-Clear" Workshop
G. Barnes, K. D. Leka, C. J. Schrijver +15
Solar flares produce radiation which can have an almost immediate effect on the near-Earth environment, making it crucial to forecast flares in order to mitigate their negative eff…
A Statistical Study of Distant Consequences of Large Solar Energetic Events
Carolus J. Schrijver, Paul A. Higgins
Large solar flares and eruptions may influence remote regions through perturbations in the outer-atmospheric magnetic field, leading to causally related events outside of the prima…
STEREO-Wind Radio Positioning of an Unusually Slow Drifting Event
J. C. Martínez-Oliveros, C. Raftery, H. Bain +7
On 13 March 2010 an unusually long duration event was observed by radio spectrographs onboard the STEREO-B and Wind spacecraft. The event started at about 13:00 UT and ended at app…
Toward Reliable Benchmarking of Solar Flare Forecasting Methods
D. Shaun Bloomfield, Paul A. Higgins, R. T. James McAteer +1
Solar flares occur in complex sunspot groups, but it remains unclear how the probability of producing a flare of a given magnitude relates to the characteristics of the sunspot gro…
Automated Solar Feature Detection for Space Weather Applications
David Pérez-Suárez, Paul A. Higgins, D. Shaun Bloomfield +4
The solar surface and atmosphere are highly dynamic plasma environments, which evolve over a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. Large-scale eruptions, such as coronal mass…
A Multi-Wavelength Analysis of Active Regions and Sunspots by Comparison of Automated Detection Algorithms
Cis Verbeeck, Paul A. Higgins, Tufan Colak +4
Since the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) began recording ~ 1 TB of data per day, there has been an increased need to automatically extract features and events for further analysi…
Solar Magnetic Feature Detection and Tracking for Space Weather Monitoring
Paul A. Higgins, Peter T. Gallagher, R. T. James McAteer +1
We present an automated system for detecting, tracking, and cataloging emerging active regions throughout their evolution and decay using SOHO Michelson Doppler Interferometer (MDI…
