This paper presents an overview of results obtained during the CAWSES-II period on the
short-term variability of the Sun and how it affects the near-Earth space environment …

In this work, we summarize the development and current status of the Global Muon Detector
Network (GMDN). The GMDN started in 1992 with only two muon detectors. It has consisted …

The analysis of cosmic ray intensity variation seen by muon detectors at Earth's surface can
help us to understand astrophysical, solar, interplanetary and geomagnetic phenomena …

Abstract The Space Weather program of the Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO)
Collaboration was designed to study the variation of the flux of atmospheric secondary …

The flux of Galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) can undergo a Forbush decrease (FD) during the
passage of a shock, sheath region, or magnetic flux rope associated with a coronal mass …

Abstract In 1967, the Yu. G. Shafer Institute of Cosmophysical Research and Aeronomy
developed a global survey method that allowed application of the global network of neutron …

In the following sub-sections, studies of solar-heliospheric effects on cosmic rays,
investigating a possible link between cosmic ray flux and Earth's climate, and detection of …

In spite of the fact that the current Solar Cycle 24 is close to its end now, it is a less active
Solar Cycle, during its time period (2008–2016) and a lot of Forbush decreases of cosmic …

We use complementary observations from the prototype and expanded Global Muon
Detector Network (GMDN) and the Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) satellite to …

The study of precursors preceding Forbush decreases belongs to the applied side of space
research and to a relatively new area of modern science, that of Space Weather. Moreover, it …
