Understanding mechanisms underlying solar cycle predictability with a general framework
Context. The large-scale magnetic field observed at the solar surface is produced by the interior dynamo process. Whether this surface field also provides the dominant seed for the subsequent dynamo cycle, however, remains controversial, with important ...

Estimating and predicting space weather is important to the space industry and space missions. The driver of space weather, especially near the Earth, is solar activity, the study of which is an important task.

Global Ionospheric Responses to Four X‐Class Solar Flares in November 2025
Abstract We investigate global ionospheric responses to four X‐class solar‐disk flares that occurred in November 2025 from the same solar active region, using multi‐instrument observations including GNSS, ionosonde, geomagnetic and GOES solar irradiance data. Pronounced dayside TEC enhancements are observed for three flares (#2 X1.2, #3 X5.1, and #4 X4.

AbstractThe phenomena of solar activity are connected with a general magnetic field of-the Sun which is due to a dynamo process essentially determined by the α-effect and the differential rotation in the convection zone. A few observational facts are summarized which are important for modelling this process.

Abstract Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) are ionospheric irregularities generated by Rayleigh–Taylor instability (RTI) that disrupt satellite communications. We quantify secular change of RTI growth rates and isolate underlying drivers using WACCM‐X simulations.

The generation of the solar magnetic field is generally ascribed to dynamo processes in the convection zone. The dynamo effects, differential rotation (ω–effect) and helical turbulence (α–effect) are explained, and the basic properties of the mean–field dynamo equations are discussed in close comparison with the observed solar cycle.Especially the ...

On energetics and inertial-range scaling laws of two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence [PDF]
L. Blackbourn was supported by an EPSRC post-graduate studentship.We study two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, with an emphasis on its energetics and inertial range scaling laws.

The Long‐Term Trend of the Equatorial Electrojet Over Indian Sector
Abstract The upper‐atmosphere cooling trend is well documented, while the long‐term trend of the ionospheric electrodynamics remains poorly understood. Using two geomagnetic observation data sets over Indian sector, we analyze the long‐term trend of the monthly‐median equatorial electrojet (EEJ) in 1967–2015 after removing the solar activity and ...

Solar and Stellar Dynamos [PDF]
AbstractRecords of the solar magnetic field extend back for millennia, and its surface properties have been observed for centuries, while helioseismology has recently revealed the Sun's internal rotation and the presence of a tachocline. Dynamo theory has developed to explain these observations, first with idealized models based on mean-field ...
