Near-Real-Time Maps of Ionospheric X-Ray Absorption

The following are near-realtime maps of ionospheric absorption produced by solar x-ray activity (solar flares). Enhanced x-ray activity increases absorption on HF radio signal passing through the daylit ionosphere. These maps depict real-time absorption of radio signals (based on current x-rays) on frequencies between 5 MHZ and 30 MHz.
