SOLAR AND GEOPHYSICAL ACTIVITY INDICES FOR 13 MARCH, 2008
---------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: The greater than 2 MeV electron fluence was high today.

The background x-ray flux was below class A1.0 levels.

SYNOPSIS OF ACTIVITY
--------------------

             Solar activity was very low.  An emerging flux region was observ       ed at N10E03.

            Solar activity forecast:  solar activity is expected to remain
       very low.

            The geomagnetic field ranged from quiet to active levels under the
       continued influence of a high speed stream.  Solar wind speed
       measured at the ace satellite ranged from 685 km/s near 2300Z to 569
       km/s near 1700Z.  The greater than 2 mev electrons at geosynchronous
       orbit remained at high levels.

            Geophysical activity forecast:  the geomagnetic field is
       expected to be mostly unsettled on day 1 (14 march), quiet on day 2
       (15 march) in response to a slackening solar wind.  A return to
       unsettled levels is anticipated on day 3 (16 march) with the
       possibility of active periods at high latitudes.
