Historical Solar Data

Last Solar Cycles Comparison

This chart compares the current solar cycle activity with the last few solar cycles.

Solar flare and coronal hole propagation data is loaded from NASA DONKI as far back as the public DONKI event API supports, beginning in 2010. X flares, M flares, and high-speed streams from coronal holes are summarized by year below.

Start Date End Date Graph By

Note: NASA DONKI data can take a while to load for long date ranges, especially multi-year searches.

Historical Earthquake Data

This section combines the existing USGS historical summaries with live regional catalog searches. The regional tool queries USGS, EMSC, and ISC feeds, normalizes the records, and removes likely duplicate events before table and chart rendering.
