08-09 May 2021. Observations on Tomsk, Russia (S.O.S.)
Observations:
09 May 2021. Calm activity in Amplitude; close-enough to a "flatline".
Magnetics/Quality is very active, as to be expected during the di-urnal of the daytime reading.
Interesting yellow-oranges at the bottom resonances; spiked, but not readily evident on the Amp/ dependency. Orange and rust colors are attributed to the Yellow [mode 2], and red [mode 3] dependencies interacting. Nearly everything on the chart today is coming from Quality, and The frequency, which is measuring the peaks within a second of time.
As usual, we see the D-Layer starting to awaken around 5LT (5 AM local time). Around 11-ish, the resonances are evident. Essentially 05-23LT is the footprint of the resonances as a group, or a series. During the remaining 6 hours of sleep, primarily the fundamental harmonic of 7.8 is still active; with light activity in the second harmonic of 14.1.
Very interesting activity happening below 8Hz. Dedicated frequency lines, as I refer to them. Resonances are the difference between two original waves, or different frequencies.

08 May 2021. Peaks (mode-synchronous) up to 110dB [A1/white] 12-15LT (local time); overall plateau from 10-19. This is merely a repetition of the pattern of diurnal variation in Tomsk.
[A2/yellow] @ 47(-dBpev); 100% of the scope. [A3/red] @ 31(-dBpeV); 100% of scope. [A4/green] 21(-dBpeV) @ 100% of scope.
Quality/magnetics, showing active during our daytime bursts.
Solar sensors showing we took a hit to the nighttime side of the planet. Direct hits can cause damage from the DC circuit. Solar radiance also can effect us at the side, not directly facing the blast. Solar ejecta spreads-out, as it leaves the sun.
We are still eligible to be effected from CMEs, even though not a direct hit.
This stated, the overwhelming majority of SR activity is due to solar compressions on the ionosphere. SR happen in the waveguide between the Ionosphere, and the Earth's surface. The ionosphere serves to block, and dissipate much of the solar radiance that Earth receives.
The main origination of SR is lightning discharges. SR might be seen as the echoes lightning. Solar outbursts do not, of necessity, cause the amplitude spikes shown on the spectrogram.
