The significance of 10-cm radio observations for studying the physical conditions in the lower corona of the solar atmosphere and for providing an index of solar activity comparable with the Zürich sunspot number is now well established. This radio emission from the solar disk has been observed daily at the Laboratories of the National Research Council of Canada in Ottawa since 1947, and the results interpreted in terms of a daily level of flux (near 17h U.T.) and of bursts of noise that may appear during the day.
