The danger of the solar activity and how to monitor it?

[bearnard1609]

The Earth’s climate is heavily affected by the amount of energy radiated onto Earth by the sun. The amount of radiation from the sun influencing Earth and the way in which this radiation is distributed across the various seasons and latitudes around the Earth, is directly influenced by changes in solar activity. Most scientists consider satellite technology the most effective way to solve this issue. What do you think about that?

The energy absorbed unto Earth can be measured. It is called spectral absorbance: Radiant intensity - Wikipedia  The absorption rate of the earth is based on square meters which have X amount of flux lines. The radiant wiki has descriptions of how we measure flux, exposure, reflection, and absorption. All of which are coherent with the Inverse Square Law, and dissipate based on the distance from the Earth or Sun. Here is the wiki for Inverse Square Law: Inverse-square law - Wikipedia

 

What do I think of it? I think we trying to find information we think is practical. I think we might need to be closer to the object of study. When better measurements are found, the accuracy of information at a distance will improve. 

 

Again the Magnetosphere and Atmosphere help in regulating stability in the Earth environment, much in the same way Mangrove trees help buffer waves from a turbulent ocean. Rather than waves of water, they are high energy protons with angular momentum.

There is a problem that the Sun does not always radiate equal levels of brightness. It takes 11 years to fulfill just one solar cycle, varying in brightness with the ability to dim throughout this time. The appearance of the sun and its activity varies through each solar cycle, causing the levels of solar radiation emitted to increase and decrease.

The absorption rate of the Sun and the oceans are well documented. Here is a link from Berkley on the basics of absorption and reflection: Absorption / reflection of sunlight - Understanding Global Change (berkeley.edu)

 

The variance in Sun brightness, even at the human threshold of notice, doesn't mean our human perception is accurate. Even if it is brighter, brightness does not equal intensity, due to waveguides.

 

If we are under a gutter during a rain storm, we may think the rain is coming down at a certain flow rate while under the gutters, when in fact its being collected from the entire roof and focused into the gutter. This is called a waveguide, and the angle of the Earth/Sun can affect how sunlight is seen in a local area, like a sunset or sunrise. 

 

Sunsets and sunrises are examples of how local brightness change doesn't necessarily equal source intensity change. 

 

At least this is how I understand it now. I too have noticed the Sun shining brighter, and its SEEMING provoked me to investigate.

I liked your post. I wanna add that still the Sun has a big affect on many areas of life on Earth, ( even on technology ) so the good idea would be to forecast solar activity with the help of satellite technology. Satellite technology can be harnessed to monitor solar activity to predict the influence of this activity on the Earth’s climate.

Well, we can use satellites to find out the level of solar activity and its influence on Earth, but as I know, there's no system to block solar activity or make its level equal. 

[Christopher S.]

In laymen's terms, the degree of variance in the energy absorbed by Earth via the Sun is most impacted by its distance to the Sun, which varies predictably thanks to our ecliptic orbit around it. Clouds, however, play a bigger role than that on a short-term basis. To understand this meteorological relationship between the differing seasons and TSI/variance in absorbed energy, you would want to have some sort of educational background in meteorology first.

Yeah, with the help of satellite technology we can only forecast solar activity but still, it`is very useful for the areas that are affected by solar activity. Unfortunately, there is no way how to block solar activity.

I don't know exactly what you mean by "..no way to block solar activity..."

 

To echo what Christopher S. said, learning about metrological systems is a great start!

We may explore other planets and go there to start a colony if solar activity bothers you😀

I don`t think that`s a good idea. First of all, our technology is too weak to allow us colonizing other space object even the closest one like moon. Also, Earth is the best place for us to live on, so now I don`t see any necessity to colonize other planet

That necessity may exist upon Betelgeuse's death, or more accurately ~15,000 years after the fact. I've run a few simulations which indicate the resulting nebula will begin encroaching on our solar system in about as long. Unfortunately, that isn't enough time with current technology to consider other systems, so...

Well 15,000 years is a lot of time in terms of technology. Our biological bodies might not leave the solar system until 14.000 years from now. We can however look around the universe with our machine eyes and ears. 

 

Perhaps 15,000 years from now, machine and biological intelligence will be indistinguishable, due to our constant interaction.

Scientists should leave the natural forces of the universe alone. If you don't like this planet, move to another one.
