Ionospheric 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 کاملGeomagnetic 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 کاملInterplanetary Shock Parameters during Solar Activity Maximum (2000) and Minimum (1995-1996)
Interplanetary shock parameters are analyzed for solar maximum (year 2000) and solar minimum (years 19951996) activity. Fast forward shocks are the most usual type of shock observed in the interplanetary medium near Earth’s orbit, and they are 88% of the identified shocks in 2000 and 60% in 1995-1996. Average plasma and magnetic field parameters for upstream and downstream sides of the shocks w...
متن کاملTerrestrial Response To Eruptive Solar Flares: Geomagnetic Storms
During the interval of August 1978December 1979, 56 unambiguous fast forward shocks were identified using magnetic field and plasma data collected by the ISEE-3 spacecraft. Because this intervaI is at a solar maximum we assume the streams causing these shocks are associated with coronal mass ejections and eruptive solar flares. For these shocks we shall describe the shockstorm relationship for ...
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...
