Geomagnetic storms driven by ICME- and CIR-dominated solar wind
[1] The interaction of the solar wind and the Earth’s magnetosphere is complex and the phenomenology of the interaction is very different for solar wind dominated by interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) compared to solar wind dominated by corotating interaction regions (CIRs). We perform a superposed epoch study of the effects of ICMEand CIR-dominated solar wind upon the storm-time pla...
متن کاملExploring sources of magnetospheric plasma using multispecies MHD
[1] A persistent, unresolved problem in terrestrial magnetospheric physics is determining the dominant source and associated entry mechanism for plasma in the Earth’s magnetosphere. This study uses the multispecies MHD code, Block Adaptive Tree Solar Wind Roe‐Type Upwind Scheme (BATS‐R‐US), to investigate this issue. Two proton species, ionospheric origin and solar wind origin, are defined in t...
متن کاملSolar wind-magnetosphere coupling efficiency during ejecta and sheath-driven geomagnetic storms
We have investigated the effect of key solar wind driving parameters on solar wind-magnetosphere coupling efficiency during sheath and magnetic cloud-driven storms. The particular focus of the study was on the coupling efficiency dependence with Alfvén Mach number (MA). The efficiency has been estimated using the dawn-dusk component of the interplanetary electric field (EY ), Newell and Borovsk...
متن کاملIonospheric redistribution during geomagnetic storms
[1]The abundance of plasma in the daytime ionosphere is often seen to grow greatly during geomagnetic storms. Recent reports suggest that the magnitude of the plasma density enhancement depends on the UT of storm onset. This possibility is investigated over a 7year period using global maps of ionospheric total electron content (TEC) produced at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The analysis confir...
متن کاملModeling magnetospheric current response to solar wind dynamic pressure enhancements during magnetic storms: 2. Application to different storm phases
[1] Two patterns of ground H perturbation as response to pressure enhancements during different phases of storms are found. One is polarity asymmetry under southward IMF Bz, e.g., 25 September 1998, 29 May 2003, and 10 January 1997 events; the other is positive H perturbation everywhere under northward IMF Bz, e.g., 7 November 2000 event. The polarity asymmetry can be further divided into two c...
