Based on these
observations and experiments, Harker and Pevtsov conclude that the observed magnetic transient is not an artifact created by the SDO / HMI
observation process, but instead represents a real change in the vector magnetic field; since the active region was located so close to the
solar limb, this suggests that the transient manifested in the horizontal component of the magnetic field (relative to the
solar surface).

solar observations from space.

observations.
High - resolution
observations are presented
based on direct imaging, two - dimensional spectropolarimetry with Fabry - Pérot interferometers, and scanning long - slit spectrographs to introduce some of the science cases for high - resolution
solar physics: (1) statistical properties of flows in and around pores and sunspots, (2) chromospheric dynamics associated with newly emerging flux, and (3) flare diagnostics from near - infrared spectropolarimetry.
The study brought together data from several spacecraft, as well as supporting
observations from
solar wind probes and ground -
based geomagnetic observatories, to develop a model that describes the Earth's magnetic field and its interaction with the
solar wind not just theoretically as had been the case previously, but
based on actual measurements.
Right, and
based on past
observations (see Dalton, Maunder, Spoerer, etc. minima), the relationship of planetary orbits to periods of increased or decreased
solar output, and the recent geometry of the various planets, and the
solar barycenter, odds are pretty good that we're due for a decade or more period of reduced
solar output.
One reason for these uncertainties is that there are only approximately 25 years of satellite -
based observations of the
solar irradiance.
I have been raising this issue for some time especially in my various articles for ClimateRealists.com in which I have been persistently proposing that on the
basis of real world climate
observations the effect of
solar variability on climate must be the opposite of conventional climatology.

solar observations on a longer scale
based on tree ring data, etc..)

observations, aiming to associate cosmic - ray variations with various

observations on atmospheric aerosol formation
based on measurements at the SMEAR II station, Finland, over a

observations corresponding to the period of high levels of
solar activity, the so - called Modern Grand maximum of
solar activity (Solanki et al. 2004).
What is clear is that the old TSI reconstructions
based on the Opinions, of course differ, but what is clear is that the variation since we have satellite
observations has been minimal, nothing at all if we simply look at changes at the
solar cycle minima, and less than 1 W / m2 from valley to peak.
This was established on the systematic comparison between models» predictions with actual
observations obtained over almost one

solar input, volcanoes) which is specified in historical simulations to the best of our knowledge
based upon
