Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are the brightest manifestations of solar activity. During periods of higher solar activity, dozens of ejections are observed daily and affect cosmic ray fluxes in interplanetary space. Observation of CMEs is usually carried out by means of various satellite apparatuses. In this work, features of the investigation of coronal mass ejections that are detected in the muon flux by the ground-based URAGAN muon hodoscope operating as a part of the Experimental complex NEVOD at the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute are discussed. Results of studying the anisotropy of the cosmic ray muon flux during the CMEs of 2016 are presented.
