Inner-heliospheric Signatures of Steadily Declining Solar Magnetic Fields and Their Possible Implications by Harsha Avinash Tanti, Susanta Kumar Bisoi, Abhirup Datta, K. Fujiki

“…We found that the floor level in both solar toroidal fields and solar wind magnetic fields was reduced during the minimum of cycle 23 and recovered back during the minimum of cycle 24. In addition, a hemispherically asymmetric solar polar reversal was evident in the signed (axial) solar polar fields during cycles 21–25, with the reversal in cycle 25 for the northern hemisphere already completed but the same for the southern hemisphere yet to be completed. …”
