Scientific paper

Our prediction for the development of sunspot cycle 23 activity came true; one of the very few to have attained this status. We use the 3-cycle quasi-periodicity observed in the planetary index Ap. We improve our method by including data for 150 years and draw inferences as to what to expect for the development phase of cycle 24. Our forecast for the smoothed sunspot number at cycle 24 peak 78+/-5 in June 2013; the possibility that next three cycles may be progressively less active cannot be ruled out; the trend may possibly continue for the rest of the 21st century.
