Solar Cycles and Sol Articles

[Shared Joy]

Hi,
I just want to draw your attention t some modifications in the solar activity:

Yesterday I felt very miserable (I worked also too much in the weekend), but so were others.

Today I checked the reports and they show an intensification of the sunspot activities and solar wind, currently causing significant, but still small scale disruption to Earth's magnetic field.

SuspiciousObservers also have a program for Earth Changes. They have an electricity and plasma lab where they study the space wheather phenomena. Their study show that the polar magnetic fields of the Sun trigger large earthquakes , when the solar magnetic field is strongest or weaker or reversing polarity, then is Earth more at risk.
Interesting observations also about impact on health, storm activity, as the magnetic fields weakens.
Maybe it's worth paying attention to this site too.

Just note that what is called "intensification of solar activity" these days is still pitifully low and weak compared to previous solar maximums. You can keep track of solar activity here: http://spaceweather.com/

Thank you Laura for the link.
It is true that there are few sunspots. I just noticed that there were some changes though, compared to what was before.
But the fact that so many people were stressed and felt worst than usually, made me to sort of link it to a change in solar activity. It's true that many other factors can interfere simultaneously, not just the Sun's activity.

Further on, being an independent site, and doing this job for years, I thought they might deserve my attention.
Just my opinion

Here is another site that tracks solar activity:

http://www.solarmonitor.org/

The one feature that I like about this one is that it gives a short summary of daily flare activity directly under the six pictures of the sun at the top; you can use this in conjunction with the link that Laura gave above. For anyone interested in looking for correlations with mental/physical health, you can use a pocket calendar to track how you're feeling on a day-to-day basis and note the flare activity underneath it.

Yeap, saw recently the one from this day _http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=ed2_1442166976, September 13th, 2015. Interesting what it says regarding today's earthquake at California's Gulf http://www.sott.net/article/301664-Earthquake-Magnitude-6-6-Gulf-of-California and what is coming ...

We now know which parts of the US are at the highest risk from a devastating solar storm
Be ready.
PETER DOCKRILL
14 OCT 2016

Scientists have drawn up the first ever map of areas of the US that would be at the biggest risk if a catastrophic geomagnetic storm – generated by solar energy erupting from the Sun – were to strike Earth.
…
Another factor at play is the conductivity of rock underneath regions with certain types of crust – such as sedimentary rock – that provide greater electrical conductivity (which you don't want in a catastrophic storm).

To assess which regions face the greatest risk from a geomagnetic storm, Love's team analysed geomagnetic data sourced from INTERMAGNET, a global network that monitors Earth's magnetic field.

They also looked at survey data from the US National Science Foundation's EarthScope program, which recorded electrical conductivity in the ground through a network of hundreds of sensors stationed across the country.
…
But as you can see, more than half the US hasn't been charted, as the researchers don't yet have congressional approval for the funding required to survey the rest of the country.

Love warns it's important to complete the work – especially the northeast US.

The researchers say the northeast region is a high-priority area in particular, due to its combination of high population metropolitan centres and corresponding grid infrastructure – but so far they're short the estimated $500,000 it would take to survey the area.

I stumble upon this video which is connected with new age promotion but it would interesting to debunk the true from the false. Here's what is argued:

Sun: We know that the Sun's magnetic field has changed in the last 100 years. There's a study by Dr. Mike Lockwood from Rutherford Appleton National Laboratories, in UK. Dr. Lockwood has been investigating the Sun, and reports that since 1901 the overall magnetic field of the Sun has become stronger by 130 percent.

A doubling of the Sun's coronal magnetic field during the past 100 year:
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v399/n6735/full/399437a0.html
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Lockwood_(physicist)

The Sun is more active now than over the last 8000 years:
http://www.mpg.de/research/sun-activity-high
http://www.nature.com/news/2004/041025/full/news041025-15.html

Moon: Earth's moon is growing an atmosphere. Around the moon, there is this 6,000- kilometre- deep layer of Natrium that wasn't there before.
http://sirius.bu.edu/moontail/

Mercury: Unexpected polar ice discovered, along with a surprisingly strong intrinsic magnetic field.

Venus: 2500% increase in auroral brightness, and substantive global atmospheric changes in less than 40 years.

Mars: “Global Warming,” huge storms, disappearance of polar icecaps.

Jupiter: Over 200% increase in brightness of surrounding plasma clouds. (Huge belts in the giant planet's atmosphere have changed color, radiation hotspots have faded and flared up again, and cloud levels have thickened and dissolved, all while space rocks have been hurtling into it the gas giant.)
http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/...

Saturn: Major decrease in equatorial jet stream velocities in only ~30 years, accompanied by surprising surge of X-rays from equator.

Uranus: Big changes in brightness, increased global cloud activity (This planet used to have a very calm atmosphere.)

Neptune: 40% increase in atmospheric brightness. http://newsoffice.mit.edu/1998/triton

Pluto: 300% increase in atmospheric pressure, even as Pluto recedes farther from the Sun.
http://newsoffice.mit.edu/2002/pluto

Earth: Substantial and obvious world-wide weather and geophysical changes. Earth's Axis has changed.
On Earth, the overall volcanic activity increased 500 percent from 1875 to 1975, while the earthquake activity has increased by 400 percent since 1973. Dr. Dmitriev says that comparing the years 1963 to 1993, the overall number of natural disasters — hurricanes, typhoons, mud slides, tidal waves, etc. — has increased by 410 percent.

The Earth's magnetic field has been decreasing. This decrease actually began 2000 years ago, but the rate of decrease suddenly became much more rapid 500 years ago. Now, in the last 20 years or so, the magnetic field has become erratic.

Thx 4 sharing those claims from the video. I googled this Dr. Lockwood and his institute in UK. Both existing. And yes, Lockwood did a study on the sun's magnetic field increase over the past 100 years. Nature reports here that it doubled! The 230% might be a myth though, as no references exist but those pointing to articles quoting that video you started with... ;)

Yes, there is polar ice on Mercury.

Sodium around the moon? Positive as well!

Mars is warming? - Well that's for sure your fault as you went there so often using your SUV spacecraft... ;) Nope, just kidding. Mars is warming indeed.

Most likely it's possible to google the rest of those claims as well.

Didn't watch the whole video. What's the

new age promotion

in it from your perspective?

 

[Ellipse]

Thanks Alexander.

Well:
- Found on a clearly new age site
- Dramatic introduction: "Nemesis maturity"
- Dramatic music
- Very well accomplished video and overall style
- You have to believe it's the result of "Nemesis" and nothing else

If references are serious it mean we can reuse those informations.

I remember back in 1997 while exploring Buddhism, on my own, I worked on expanding my awareness, so much so that I ended up being diagnosed with chronic depression. I am a geophysical engineer by profession and in my job the only constant are the geophysical anomalies. :) Looking at the claims of changes in our solar system I take it as a normal behavior of an open system (until and unless otherwise proven). It would be odd and indeed boring to exhibit constant behavior with no anomalies. The amount of information recorded and collected with ever more sophisticated methods of observation and constantly increasing accurracies and precisions might have a similar effect as an awareness explosion. The cure to that is learning to improve the models of the physical interactions and understand that 50 or indeed 100 years is pretty much nothing when considering events at planetary scale.
Just as an example, Many discuss the wandering of the geomagnetic poles, the pole reversals... I am not contesting the topics. The problem is that such discussions are carried out at general theoretical level which induce erroneous suggestions of a homogeneous geomagnetic field throughout its entirety which cannot be further than the actual measured values. Look at the maps from _https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/image.shtml. These maps provide the best approximation of the current magnetic components of the geomagnetic field modeled for a set period of time. The website also gives information regarding the data and the methods used to obtain them. Thirty years ago such maps were drawn by hand in months or probably years. These days anyone who wants and has the know how can do them in hours. The point is imho to know why and how and for what application you use the information, and voila, the 'pole shift' has a different meaning, and I believe should one go in depth and breath for all the 'celestial bodies enumerated above' will perhaps settle on a single fascinating instance and write a paper about an obscure tensor. I hope it helped.

For sure the problem is that we do not have large periods of time filled with data to compare to. And even with that, if I understand well, you say that it can be an anomalies which is what you see all the time. Right?

 

[Alexander Gottwald]

Isn't that pretty much what Laura suggests in her books about the "Secret History of the World"? - I'm surprised you seem to have so much of an issue with Nemesis. Also people who do YT-videos usually have an attention catching intro they're using. Me too. Nothing more than marketing. These guys for sure make money having YT/Google ads on their videos.

But the links can all easily be googled. One of the most interesting things comes towards the end and led me to this document by Russian scientist Dr. Alexey N. Dmitriev. - This is his work named "Planetophysical State Of The Earth And Life".

Apologies for quoting myself above.

About the anomalies (geophysical).
'anomaly. 1. A deviation from uniformity in physical properties; a perturbation from a normal, uniform, or predictable field. 2. Observed minus theoretical value. 3. A portion of a geophysical survey, such as magnetic or gravitational, which is different in appearance from the survey in general. 4. A gravity measurement which differs from the value predicted by some model, for example, a Bouguer or free-air anomaly (q.v.). 5. In seismic usage, generally synonymous with structure. Occasionally used for unexplained seismic events. 6. Especially, a deviation which is of exploration interest; a feature which may be associated with petroleum accumulation or mineral deposit. 7. An induced-polarization anomaly is usually positive and greater than background (or the normal effect) to be economically interesting. In the frequency domain an anomalous region has a resistivity which decreases with frequency. An interesting resistivity anomaly is generally smaller than background.' Encyclopedic Dictionary of Exploration Geophysics, Robert E. Sheriff, p10,11
http://csegrecorder.com/articles/view/the-meaning-of-anomaly-200406

So what I meant by anomaly above is 'any variation that does not fit a predicted model or any deviation from a uniform variation. Next is the 'what you see' part. In order to visualize changes, to see, you need to measure and process data and to use a construct - mathematical model to 'arrange ' the results in such a way that they produce the picture of what we assume it is representing, the physical phenomenon observed.
