List of publications using SIDC data

Dear colleague,

Reproduction of the SIDC sunspot data is allowed, but we kindly request that the source is explicitly mentioned as follows:

credit: SIDC, RWC Belgium, World Data Center for the Sunspot Index, Royal Observatory of Belgium, `year(s)-of-data'.

This is required for explicit reproduction of our data. If our data is used for publications, a reference to our online catalogue of sunspot data is appropriate. We recommend that you use the following format, mentioning the current SIDC team, in the list of references:
R.A.M. Van der Linden and the SIDC team, online catalogue of the sunspot index, http://sidc.oma.be/html/sunspot.html.

All publications that use and mention SIDC data are welcome to figure on this page. If you wish to see your publication(s) listed below, send a message to Ronald Van der Linden with the journal references and, if possible, an appropriate link.

Publication colour code
....Publication in refereed scientific journal *
