GOES X-Ray Flux

GOES X-Ray Flux

Solar X-ray flux — shows solar flare activity. Dotted line = event threshold.

Solar Wind (ACE/RTSW)

Solar Wind (ACE/RTSW)

3-day ACE solar wind magnetic field and speed.

Solar Wind (DSCOVR)

Solar Wind (DSCOVR)

DSCOVR solar wind data.

KP Index (Geomagnetic Activity)

KP Index (Geomagnetic Activity)

Global geomagnetic activity index.

GOES Magnetometer

GOES Magnetometer

GOES satellite magnetometer data.

GOES Proton Flux

GOES Proton Flux

High energy proton bombardment. Dotted line = Level 1 radiation storm baseline. Each level up = higher storm.

GOES Electron Flux

GOES Electron Flux

High energy electron bombardment. Radiation storm levels when Red/Blue curves cross the hashed line.
