- Las manchas solares son tormentas magnéticas solares. Las manchas aparecen más oscuras porque la temperatura de las manchas son más bajos que la fotosfera circundante.
- Sirven como reservorio para las erupciones solares y eyecciones de masa coronal , que causan Las auroras , apagones de energÃa / comunicaciones, y las anomalÃas satelitales .
- La actividad del Sol crece y decrece en un ciclo de manchas solares de 11 años ; Solar mÃnima es cuando el número de manchas solares son más baratos .
- Parece que hay una correlación entre Solar Min / máxima y el clima de la Tierra. La medida en que el ozono , los vientos estratosféricos , los patrones de circulación global , y la siembra de nubes se ven afectados son todavÃa se está estudiando.

Tormentas solares de radiación:
El Protón Flux muestra los últimos 3 dÃas de datos para la parte más peligrosa de una tormenta solar ; Radiación solar. Note the left side Particles value of 101 through 105 MeV for the red band, and the duration of the storm. Match with the Solar Radiation Storm column in the scale. |

Radio Blackouts: This plot
shows the last 3 days of Solar X-ray values for the part of Solar Storms causing radio blackouts. Note the left side (W/m2) of 10-5 through 10-2 and note the right side M or X. Match with Radio Blackouts column in the scale. Affected Freqs eg. An Xray Flux of 10-3 in the X20 range (very top plot w/out a value in the right side) is indicative of an EXTREME (R5) event-radio blackout on the entire sunlit side of Earth lasting for a number of hours. |

Geomagnetic Storms This
plot shows Geomagnetic Storm strength. Note the left side Kp value of 5 through 9 (<5 not an event) and
duration. Match with the Geomagnetic Storm column in the
scale.
eg. A Kp 7 event is a STRONG (G3) event-HF radio may be intermittent, and aurora have
been seen as low as Illinois and Oregon. |

This plot shows the current extent and position of the auroral oval in the northern hemisphere, during the most recent NOAA POES satellite pass.
The red arrow in the plot, that looks like a clock hand, points toward the noon meridian.
The power fluxes are color coded on a scale from 0 to 10 ergs .cm-2.sec-1 according to the color bar on the right. The pattern has been oriented with respect to the underlying geographic map using the current UTC time, updated every ten minutes.

Solar Activity Monitor
The monitor in the page heading provides a textual status of X-ray activity and refers to the X-Ray Flux graph at the top of the page.NORMAL | Solar X-ray flux is quiet (<1.00e-6 W/m^2). |
ACTIVE | Solar X-ray flux is active (>= 1.00e-6 W/m^2). |
M CLASS FLARE | An M Class Solar Flare has occurred (>= 1.00e-5 W/m^2). |
X CLASS FLARE | An X Class Solar Flare has occurred (>= 1.00e-4 W/m^2). |
MEGA FLARE | An unprecedented X-ray event has occurred (>= 1.00e-3 W/m^2). |
