Comparison of substorm onsets during different levels of interplanetary magnetic field B z

The magnetospheric response during the substorm events to solar wind driving, as determined by the level and sign of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz, is analysed. Using the superposed epoch analysis, solar wind and geomagnetic conditions under three levels of Bz are characterised, i.e. no...

Description
Summary:The magnetospheric response during the substorm events to solar wind driving, as determined by the level and sign of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz, is analysed. Using the superposed epoch analysis, solar wind and geomagnetic conditions under three levels of Bz are characterised, i.e. northward or BZN (Bz>0nT, 75 events), very weak or BZ0 (Bz∼0nT, 78 events) and southward or BZS (Bz
