beach> ... now better organized and answers your questions even better Yes, it's getting there. I almost understand it now. :-] I must say this is a very ambitious project for a high school student. I would have guessed you were working on a college senior project, or perhaps even a master's thesis. Keep going, you and your classmates (and maybe your teacher) will learn a lot from this. One tiny nitpick, you use the term "Variance" in the name of your scale. This term has a universally accepted meaning (average squared deviation from the expected value) which I don't see you actually using. It's considered very 'bad form' to apply new meanings to such standard terms (unless you present a strong justification for doing so). So Geomagnetic Variational Intensity Scale might be more appropriate. But you also need to Google 'GVIS' to see if some other scale is already called that. Very confusing to have two scales with the same acronym. Already found one: www.acronymfinder.com/Graded-Visual-Impairment-Scale-(GVIS).htmlBut it's used in a different field of science and is rarely used. So GVIS might be OK for geomagnetic work. But check it out some more. I'll reserve further comments until we see your paper. John/af4ex

... and one more bigger nitpick: it's OK to correct typos and make small corrections to your replies. But please don't rewrite the reply like you did above. It destroys the context of the other replies that follow it. Start a new reply! :-|

I have just finished editing my paper, if you could private message me your e-mail, I would be more than glad to send it to you, I do think it will be too large to send via the forums. Just a disclaimer, the paper is written to disprove a correlation between GOES classifications and the effect of solar flares on the strength of the geomagnetic field, so it's not dedicated to the GVIS. It has 20 pages of writing, if I remember correctly.

Solar researcher offers 10K reward for published dynamic version of static analysis Posted: January 7, 2012 by tallbloke in Astronomy, Astrophysics, Solar physics, solar system dynamics 1 Independent Solar researcher Patrick Geryl has contacted me to ask if I can help find someone with the necessary skills and qualifications who can convert his static analysis of solar activity changes into a dynamic model and get it published in a recognised astronomical journal. As a reward for the effort involved, Patrick is offering $10,000 dollars or currency equivalent to the person who steps up and achieves this task.

It looks as though the sun is going back to sleep. I know it's not, but the activity looks significantly diminished.
