Abstract: Results are presented from an analysis of changes in the muon flux of cosmic rays during Forbush effects, recorded by the URAGAN muon hodoscope in the period 2012–2017 and the scintillation muon hodoscope in 2016–2017. Characteristics of the Forbush effects for this period are analyzed. The obtained characteristics of muon flux variations are compared to different parameters of the near heliosphere during the Forbush effects for the 11-year cycle of solar activity.
