Effect of morphological asymmetry between leading and following sunspots on the prediction of solar cycle activity
Modeling the well-known size asymmetry of sunspot pairs in surface flux transport simulations reduces the error in reconstructed solar axial dipole strength by 30-40 percent and changes the predicted timing of polar field reversals.
