Abstract
Abstract Using three nonstationary solar series, the solar flare index (FS), the sunspots index (SS), and the solar flux (F10.7) index, we apply the Morlet wavelet analysis to determine the most dominant harmonics of solar activity, 1.73, 3.27, 4.9, 10.4, and 11 yr. The periodicities obtained are processed by the fuzzy logic method, which allows us to reproduce the occurrence dates of ground level enhancements (GLE), since 1942–2006, which we use as a training baseline of these spectral techniques to determine the occurrence of solar particle enhancements in solar cycles. Then, the result of fuzzy logic is extended to periods later than the training period so as to cover the end of cycle 24 and the beginning of cycle 25. In addition to the forecastable aspect of this work, the obtained results are of high interest in view of the recent controversy that has arisen in relation to the occurrence of small GLE (namely sub-GLE), during cycle 24.
