Prediction of geoeffective solar wind streams near earth according to solar observational data

Abstract

A semi-empirical model for predicting solar wind (SW) streams is developed based on satellite images of the Sun and corona using a hierarchical approach. The model allows simultaneous calculation of the parameters of all three SW components, i.e., slow SW, high-speed streams from coronal holes, and interplanetary coronal mass ejections, as well as the detection of their possible interaction in the heliosphere.
