Zusammenfassung |
According to NOAA space weather scales, geomagnetic storms of scales G5
(3-h index of geomagnetic activity Kp=9), G4 (Kp=8) and G3 (Kp=7) are
dangerous for satellites, aircrafts, and even for technology on the ground
(influence on power systems, on spacecraft operations, on HF
radio-communications and others). We show on the basis of statistical data,
that these geomagnetic storms, mostly accompanied by cosmic ray (CR)
Forbush-decreases, are also dangerous for people's health on spacecraft and
on the ground (increasing the rate of myocardial infarctions, brain strokes and
car accident road traumas). To prevent these serious damages it is very
important to forecast dangerous geomagnetic storms. Here we consider the
principles of using CR measurements for this aim: to forecast at least
10-15h before the sudden commencement of great geomagnetic storms accompanied
by Forbush-decreases, by using neutron monitor muon telescope
worldwide network online hourly data. We show that for this forecast one
may use the following features of CR intensity variations connected with
geomagnetic storms accompanied by Forbush-decreases: 1) CR pre-increase, 2)
CR pre-decrease, 3) CR fluctuations, 4) change in the 3-D CR anisotropy. |
