Anomalous Behavior 7- 7 -2009 Magnetosphere

Anomalous Behavior,
magnetopause position & 3-day history of magnetopause standoff & cross cap ionospheric potential difference

Time shifted to predict conditions at ACE shows that the Anomalous Behavior on 7 7 2009 was localized to L1 and the area around the Earth but not @ L4 or L5

Movie contains 24 hour observation of the Magnetosphere using CCMC BATSRUS Model , ACE and Stereo B and Goes Real Time Data

1. Livingston-Penn observations that the magnetic strength of the sunspots irrespective of their amount has linearly declined since at least 1990 leading the spots vanishing in 2014 or 2015 if the trend continues.

2. A 50-year low in solar wind pressure: Measurements by the Ulysses spacecraft reveal a 20% drop in solar wind pressure since the mid-1990's.

3. A 12 year low in solar irradiance: the sun's brightness has dropped a whopping 6% at extreme UV wavelengths since the solar minimum of 1996.

4. A 55-year low in solar radio wavelengths. The lessening of radio emissions seems to be an indication of weakness in the sun's global magnetic field.

5. The all-time low (since Maunder minimum) of Gleissberg cycle in 2005 (72 years).

6. Ap Index very low.

7. TSI (Total Solar Irradiance) at its lowest since satellite observations began in 1979 (1365 Watts)".
