FDs are observed as fast, occasionally two-step, decreases in the count rate of particle counters. The decrease is usually followed by a gradual recovery taking up to several days or even a week. A particularly strong FD, observed as suppression of the flux of galactic cosmic rays was observed by the global network of ground-based neutron monitors (NMs) on 24–25 March 2024. The decrease revealed an unusual rapid recovery leading to false ground-level enhancement alarm from the cosmic radiation warning systems. The event was highly anisotropic, with anisotropy focused nearly on the anti-sunward direction. Here we present the observations, focusing on NM records, and the corresponding analysis.MultidisciplinaryObservation and analysis of the anisotropic Forbush decrease of 24 March 2024Conference PaperSCOPUS10.22323/1.501.13332-s2.0-10502906793018248039
