Talk Title: How to Predict Solar Cycle 25

Talk Summary: Observations of the Sun are vital in monitoring and
predicting radio communications for amateurs and professionals alike.
Conversely, centuries-long monitoring of variations of the Earth's magnetic
field can be used to determine long-term variations of solar activity. The
ability to predict future solar activity is important for HF
communications. The talk describes how we predict solar cycles.

Brief Bio: Leif Svalgaard has studied solar physics for over half a
century, and is a co-discoverer of the Svalgaard-Mansurov effect which
provides convincing evidence that the Earth’s magnetosphere is permanently
open to the solar wind. He joined Stanford University in 1972. During
1980-2000 Svalgaard was in private industry, including serving as
consultant to SHAPE. In 2009 Leif returned to Stanford University. His
latest research is on reconstruction of the historical sunspot number
series and on prediction of solar cycles
