------------------------------------------------------------------- THE RELATIVE MONTHLY MEAN SUNSPOT NUMBER ON AUGUST 2016 HAS MADE Waug. = 30.4, 50.7 (Î.) THAT GIVES FOR 85 MONTHS (2016, FEBRUARY) DEVELOPMENT CURRENT 24 CYCLE OF SOLAR ACTIVITY THE SMOOTHED MONTHLY MEAN SUNSPOT NUMBER W*feb. = 31.6; 52.6 - in new system - On July 1, 2015 Centre in Brussels moved to a new system of cal- culation the relative number of sunspots and practically all of the values were replaced throughout the numbered series of Wolf numbers (see link). While there is addictive, I recalculated (0.6) to the old system, but only W*, and present below the new values for the minimum and maximum of 24 cycles SA. THE BEGINNING OF 24 SOLAR CYCLE - I 2009 with W*=1.8; (2.2) THE TIME OF THE CURRENT CYCLE MAXIMUM - IV 2014, - Wmax = 82;(116.4) THE END OF 24 SOLAR CYCLE (THE POINT OF MINIMUM) - IV - VI 2020; THE INTERNATIONAL DAILY VALUE OF RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBER FOR 2016, AUGUST ACCORDING DATA OF 74 SOLAR OBSERVATORIES HAS MADE: 1.. 12 6.. 39 11.. 79 16.. 81 21.. 14 26.. 51 31.. 80 2.. 12 7.. 53 12.. 73 17.. 58 22.. 30 27.. 59 3.. 0m 8.. 81M 13.. 58 18.. 49 23.. 48 28.. 64 4.. 16 9.. 73 14.. 59 19.. 47 24.. 49 29.. 69 5.. 38 10.. 77 15.. 64 20.. 17 25.. 48 30.. 73 THE MONTHLY MEAN OF OBSERVED RADIO FLUX OF THE 10 cm (2800 MHz ON 2016, AUGUST, AND SMOOTHES ON 2016, FEBRUARY F10.7 aug. = 85.0 F*10.7 feb.= 98.1 THE MONTHLY MEAN OF GEOMAGNETIC Ap-index ON 2016, AUGUST, AND SMOOTHES ON 2016, FEBRUARY Ap aug. = 9.4 Ap* feb.= 12.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Weekly Bulletin on Solar and Geomagnetic Activity Highlights on 22 - 28.08 2016, Forecast on 29.08 - 05.09.2016, Carrington Rotation 2181 (26.89.08.2016) SUNSPOT-FORMING ACTIVITY OF THE SUN REMAINED ON THE MIDDLE LEVEL. THE ESTIMATED, MOST LIKELY WEEKLY AVERAGE VALUE OF THE RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBER IN THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM (old) FOR THE PERIOD IS W = 039+16/-11 (WÎ=062+25/-20). ON THE VISIBLE DISK OF THE SUN 5- 3 SUNSPOT GROUP ONE OF WHICH WAS BIG SIZE(AR12585, N08L221, Sp =590 msh). NEXT WEEK IT IS EXPECTED THE MIDDLE AND THE LOW LEVEL. THE ESTI- MATED, MOST LIKELY WEEKLY AVERAGE VALUE OF THE RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBER IN THE INTERNATIONAL SYSTEM (old) FOR THE NEXT WEEK IS W= 020+10/-10. FLARE ACTIVITY WAS AT THE VERY LOW LEVEL BUT 30 - 31.08 - THE LOW. THERE WERE FIVE SOLAR FILAMENT EJECTION OCCURRENCES THROUGH THE PE- RIOD, ONE 29.08/1947 UT WAS GEOEFFICIENT AND STRENGTHENED THE MAG- NETIC STORM 1 - 2.09. ACCORDING TO THE SOHO AND STEREO CORONOGRAPHS DATA > 15 CMEs, HAVE BEEN OBSERVED. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- FLARES to tm te local.
