Scientific paper

Recently a NASA supported, NOAA SEC panel of experts predicted that the next solar cycle would peak in early 2000 at a sunspot number value of 160 +/- 30, or equivalently an F10.7 radio flux of 205 +/- 30. This value was arrived at by group consensus, and close to both the geomagnetic precursor and solar precursor prediction values. We discuss: 1)The historical origin for precursor indices; 2) The physical basis for the solar and geomagnetic precursors.; 3) How big are the differences between these two techniques, and what do they mean?; 4) From the above, the listener may be able to form a better picture of the next cycle. This work is supported by NASA.
