Solar cycle prediction using precursors and flux transport models
We study the origin of the predictive skill of some methods to forecast the strength of solar activity cycles. A simple flux transport model for the az-imuthally averaged radial magnetic field at the solar surface is used, which contains a source term describing the emergence of new flux based on observational sunspot data. We consider the magnetic flux diffusing over the equator as a pre-dicto...
متن کاملChaos in the Solar Cycle: using data to drive predictions
This report presents first steps at applying chaos theory to the solar activity cycle. We provide brief reviews of the history of sunspot records, the mathematical framework of chaos theory, and solar dynamo theory. Finally, we present results of nonlinear analysis of solar motion and propose that further research focus on characterizing local Lyapunov exponents of solar dynamics.
متن کاملFormation of Vertebral Precursors: Past Models and Future Predictions
Disruption of normal vertebral development results from abnormal formation and segmentation of the vertebral precursors, called somites. Somitogenesis, the sequential formation of a periodic pattern along the antero-posterior axis of vertebrate embryos, is one of the most obvious examples of the segmental patterning processes that take place during embryogenesis and also one of the major unreso...
متن کاملPrecursors to Interstellar Shocks of Solar Origin
On or about 2012 August 25, the Voyager 1 spacecraft crossed the heliopause into the nearby interstellar plasma. In the nearly three years that the spacecraft has been in interstellar space, three notable particle and field disturbances have been observed, each apparently associated with a shock wave propagating outward from the Sun. Here, we present a detailed analysis of the third and most im...
متن کاملThe Solar Cycle
The solar cycle is reviewed. The 11-year cycle of solar activity is characterized by the rise and fall in the numbers and surface area of sunspots. A number of other solar activity indicators also vary in association with the sunspots including; the 10.7 cm radio flux, the total solar irradiance, the magnetic field, flares and coronal mass ejections, geomagnetic activity, galactic cosmic ray fl...
