The Solar Terrestrial Activity Report

History ~1995 – monthly report (paper) 1997 – daily reports (Internet) 2002 – detailed sunspot analysis 2002 – archive of daily reports 2002 – Coronal hole numbering and archive 2010 – Switch from SOHO to SDO as image source 2010 – Sunspot number using 2K SDO continuum images 2011 – Sunspot analysis using polarity overlays 2012 – Added 1K SDO sunspot number. Sunspot image documentation at 1, 2 and 4K resolution

Coronal holes Visible disk observations Inferred (behind the limbs)

Sunspots – image creation Using magnetic overlays greatly aids spot analysis – both at the overview and detailed level The transformation from 2 images to the magnetic overlay image only requires a few steps. Easily done in Gimp or Photoshop + =

Sunspots – magnetic deltas Quickly detect magnetic delta structures AR developed many magnetic delta structures in early July 2012 AR produced 1 X and 6 M class flares on July 6

Sunspots – group boundaries Using magnetic boundaries instead of longitudinal separation when determining possible splits Magnetically one group Locarno split into 2 groups (77/78), presumably because of longitudinal separation of spots, see 12/loc-d JPG

Sunspots – early detection Early detection improves quality of related solar data NOAA recorded a C5.8 flare at 17:07 UTC on January 18 and attributed it to AR SDO/EVE SAM confirms that the flare occurred in AR S2181 (now 11660)

Sunspots – high latitude obs. AR S2052, location: N42E30 Easily observed in 1K resolution on Nov.14, 2012 AR S1968, location: N51E04 Poorly defined spot, observed in 2K on October 8, 2012 AR S1578, location: S41E22 Several spots in 2K, one in 1K resolution. Observed on April 10, 2012
