The Mean Field of the solar disk reduced to the SOLIS scale (which is 1.86 times WSO).The MF is a good proxy for the IMF near the Earth 4.5 days later.Radial component of IMF measured by Ulysses spacecraft normalized to distance of 1AU. Recent data (dark blue) compared to data from last minimum (red).nT109876543210B obsB calc from IDVB obs median100% =>B std.devCoverage1960 1965 1970 1975 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010109876543210Observed (red) and calculated from IDV (blue) yearly averages of IMF strength B.-----------Next page: Count of ‘active regions with spots’ for the past few cycles. The count isreally a count of days in each full month the region was visible [and no more than 70degrees from central meridian] and then summed for every region. Yearly smoothedvalues are also shown as the ‘smoother’ curves. Different cycles are coded with adifferent color. The detailed figures show the transitions between cycles. Note that cycle24 has just barely (but certainly) begun.
