The aa indices: A 100-year series characterizing the magnetic activity

Mayaud, Pierre-Noël·1972·Journal of Geophysical Research

Abstract

After the 100-year series of the aa indices is described, two results are set forth. The general trend of the activity variation permits us to forecast a very-low level of intensity (3–4 in Ap units for the yearly values) during the next solar minimums (this finding would be of interest in magnetospheric studies), and the annual variation of the activity is definitely proved.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
