Timing of the solar wind propagation delay between L1 and Earth based on machine learning

Carsten Baumann, Aoife E. McCloskey

Erroneous GNSS positioning, failures in spacecraft operations and power outages due to geomagnetically induced currents are severe threats originating from space weather. Having kn…

A Comparison of Flare Forecasting Methods. IV. Evaluating Consecutive-Day Forecasting Patterns

Sung-Hong Park, K. D. Leka, Kanya Kusano +21

A crucial challenge to successful flare prediction is forecasting periods that transition between "flare-quiet" and "flare-active". Building on earlier studies in this series (Barn…

A Comparison of Flare Forecasting Methods. II. Benchmarks, Metrics and Performance Results for Operational Solar Flare Forecasting Systems

K. D. Leka, Sung-Hong Park, Kanya Kusano +21

Solar flares are extremely energetic phenomena in our Solar System. Their impulsive, often drastic radiative increases, in particular at short wavelengths, bring immediate impacts…

Flaring Rates and the Evolution of Sunspot Group McIntosh Classifications

Aoife E. McCloskey, Peter T. Gallagher, D. Shaun Bloomfield

Sunspot groups are the main source of solar flares, with the energy to power them being supplied by magnetic-field evolution (e.g. flux emergence or twisting/shearing). To date, fe…
