A Deep Learning Approach for Automated Total Sunspot Number Estimation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Accurate sunspot number estimation is essential for understanding the long-term evolution of solar activity and its impact on space weather. Sunspot numbers have been manually determined, leading to inconsistencies and observer-dependent biases.

Impact of sunspot activity on the rainfall patterns over Eastern Africa: a case study of Sudan and South Sudan

open access: yesJournal of Water and Climate Change, 2021
The relation between sunspots and rainfall patterns is still obscure in Africa, especially for Sudan and South Sudan. This research explores the response of rainfall to solar activity in eastern regions of Africa, with a case study in Sudan and South ...

Width of Sunspot Generating Zone and Reconstruction of Butterfly Diagram

open access: yes, 2010
Based on the extended Greenwich-NOAA/USAF catalogue of sunspot groups it is demonstrated that the parameters describing the latitudinal width of the sunspot generating zone (SGZ) are closely related to the current level of solar activity, and the growth ...

Nanozymes at the Bio‐Nano Interface: From Synthesis, Defect Engineering, Catalytic Behavior in Biological Microenvironments, and Biosafety Implications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Nanozymes (NZs) have emerged as versatile artificial enzymes with tunable catalytic properties driven by atomic coordination, defect engineering, and surface chemistry. This review presents a bio–nano interface framework linking synthesis strategies, structural design, and catalytic behavior within complex biological microenvironments.

An upper limit prediction of the peak sunspot number for solar cycle 24

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2011
In this paper we address the prediction of the maximum sunspot number in solar cycle 24. We correlate the integral sunspot activity related to the variability of the cycle decrease speed in the declining phase with the height of the next sunspot maximum.

Is the F10.7cm – Sunspot Number relation linear and stable?

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2021
The F10.7cm radio flux and the Sunspot Number are the most widely used long-term indices of solar activity. They are strongly correlated, which led to the publication of many proxy relations allowing to convert one index onto the other.

Power law relating 10.7 cm flux to sunspot number

open access: yes, 2010
To investigate the relation between observations of the 10.7 cm flux and the international sunspot number so that a physical unit may be ascribed to historical records, both polynomial and power law models are developed giving the radio flux as a ...

GATA4‐Driven Transcription of HtrA1 Promotes Cellular Senescence in Ménière's Disease and Age‐Related Audio‐Vestibular Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the HDAC6/GATA4/HtrA1 axis as a critical driver of cellular senescence in the inner ear. GATA4 nuclear translocation, facilitated by HDAC6 downregulation, transcriptionally activates HtrA1, promoting hair cell senescence, SASP, and audio‐vestibular dysfunction in models of Ménière's disease and age‐related audio‐vestibular ...

An Automatic Approach for Grouping Sunspots and Calculating Relative Sunspot Number on SDO/HMI Continuum Images

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
The relative sunspot number is one of the major parameters for the study of long-term solar activity. The automatic calculation of the relative sunspot number is more stable and accurate as compared to manual methods.
