Magnetic Structure of Sunspots [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Solar Physics, 2011
In this review we give an overview about the current state-of-knowledge of the magnetic field in sunspots from an observational point of view. We start by offering a brief description of tools that are most commonly employed to infer the magnetic field ...

Can Sunspot Activity Affect the Population Dynamics of Cotton Bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)? [PDF]

open access: yesInsects
Whether there is a correlation between sunspots and an impact on insects has long been a subject of debate. As a worldwide pest, the cotton bollworm can feed on a variety of plants and cause great harm to agriculture.

Characterizing the Solar Activity Using the Visibility Graph Method [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2023
In this paper, the Sun and its behavior are studied by means of complex networks. The complex network was built using the Visibility Graph algorithm. This method maps time series into graphs in which every element of the time series is considered as a ...

The transition region above sunspots

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2018
Over decades, sunspots and their fine structures have been studied in detail at the photospheric level with different ground-based telescopes, as the surface of the Sun primarily emits light in the visible wavelengths.

Complex Network Study of Solar Magnetograms [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy, 2022
In this paper, we study solar magnetic activity by means of a complex network approach. A complex network was built based on information on the space and time evolution of sunspots provided by image recognition algorithms on solar magnetograms taken ...

Questioning the Influence of Sunspots on Amazon Hydrology: Even a Broken Clock Tells the Right Time Twice a Day

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
It was suggested in a recent article that sunspots drive decadal variation in Amazon River flow. This conclusion was based on a novel time series decomposition method used to extract a decadal signal from the Amazon River record.

On Sunspots

open access: yes, 2010
Galileo's telescopic discoveries, and especially his observation of sunspots, caused great debate in an age when the heavens were thought to be perfect and unchanging. Christoph Scheiner, a Jesuit mathematician, argued that sunspots were planets or moons

Locally weighted regression for sunspots estimation and prediction [PDF]

open access: yesالمجلة العراقية للعلوم الاحصائية, 2022
Locally weighted regression (LOESS) is a modern non-parametric regression method designed for treating cases where classical procedures are not highly efficient or cannot applied efficiently.

Relations Among Sunspots, CMEs and Geomagnetic Storms in Solar Cycle 23 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2009
We compare the relation among the annual distribution of sunspots: coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and geomagnetic storms and North-South asymmetry during solar cycle 23.

SIPNet & SAHI: Multiscale Sunspot Extraction for High-Resolution Full Solar Images

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Photospheric magnetic fields are manifested as sunspots, which cover various sizes over high-resolution, full-disk, solar continuum images. This paper proposes a novel deep learning method named SIPNet, which is designed to extract and segment multiscale
