Book Chapter The Highest Geomagnetic Storms of the Solar Cycle Observed at Ground Level

Download or read book Chapter The Highest Geomagnetic Storms of the Solar Cycle Observed at Ground Level written by C. E. Navia and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We report two ground-level observations, of geomagnetic storms of different origins; they are among the highest geomagnetic storms, in the solar Cycle 24. The first is St. Patrick's Day storm on March 17, 2015, originated by the impact on Earth's atmosphere of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), the storm reaching the condition of G4 (severe) level, in the NOAA geomagnetic scale. The second included the major geomagnetic storm whose origin is attributed to the interaction with the Earth of a High-Speed Stream (HSS) ahead of a positive polarity coronal hole on October 7, 2015. This storm reached the condition G3 (strong) level. We give emphasis to observations detected by the New-Tupi muon telescopes, located at sea level in Brazil (22.53° S, 43.13° W). We present a study of these observations in correlation with observations reported by multipoint space-based measurements, such as the ACE at Lagrange Point L1 and the geostationary GOES weather satellite, including two global geomagnetic indices and several ground-based detectors. Some considerations on the influence of these geomagnetic storms in the Earth weather are reported.

Book Behavior of High latitude Irregularities During Geomagnetic Disturbances

Download or read book Behavior of High latitude Irregularities During Geomagnetic Disturbances written by Zwi Houminer and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scintillation observations of VHF and UHF transmissions from geostationary satellites at Goose Bay have been used to study the average characteristics of the high latitude irregularity region. The paper describes the average time development and mean diurnal pattern of irregularities during 58 magnetic storms in 1971-1976. The diurnal variation at Goose Bay shows two peaks of scintillation activity. One peak occurs during the afternoon hours, while the second occurs during the night. The average diurnal pattern is independent of type of storm. diurnal and seasonal effects appear only in the first day of storm commencement and not in the following days which show a very similar diurnal picture.

  • Pages : 479 pages

Download or read book Solar Storms written by Linda Hogan and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1997-02-26 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Pulitzer Prize finalist Linda Hogan, Solar Storms tells the moving, “luminous” (Publishers Weekly) story of Angela Jenson, a troubled Native American girl coming of age in the foster system in Oklahoma, who decides to reunite with her family. At seventeen, Angela returns to the place where she was raised—a stunning island town that lies at the border of Canada and Minnesota—where she finds that an eager developer is planning a hydroelectric dam that will leave sacred land flooded and abandoned. Joining up with three other concerned residents, Angela fights the project, reconnecting with her ancestral roots as she does so. Harrowing, lyrical, and boldly incisive, Solar Storms is a powerful examination of the clashes between cultures and traumatic repercussions that have shaped American history.

Book The Average Morphology of Geomagnetic Storms with Sudden Commencement

Download or read book The Average Morphology of Geomagnetic Storms with Sudden Commencement written by Masahisa Sugiura and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The average morphology is described of geomagnetic storms with sudden commencement. A numerical intensity index was assigned to each of 346 storms occurring in 1902--45. On the basis of these indices the storms were divided into three sets, of 136 weak, 136 moderate, and 74 great storms. Their morphology was studied separately. For weak storms records were analyzed from 26 magnetic observatories, ranging in geomagnetic latitude from 80 deg N to 48 deg S; and for moderate and great storms, from 19 observatories, 80 deg N to 1 deg S. The stormtime variation Dst and the disturbance longitudinal inequality DS were determined for the first three storm days for different latitudes. The DS variation was obtained, and harmonically analyzed, for each of the first 8 quarter-day intervals and for the succeeding three 8-hour intervals. New features of storm morphology during the first few hours of storm time were discovered: namely, that DS reaches its maximum in about two or three hours from the storm commencement, and that its phase rapidly changes during the first few storm hours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ring Current Investigations offers a comprehensive description of ring current dynamics in the Earth's magnetosphere as part of the coupled magnetosphere-ionosphere system. In order to help researchers develop a deeper understanding of the fundamental physics of geomagnetic storms, it includes a detailed description of energetic charged particles injection, trapping, and loss. It reviews historical and recent advances in observations, measurements, theory and simulations of the inner magnetosphere and its coupling to the ionosphere and other surrounding plasma populations. In addition, it compares the physics of ring currents at other strongly magnetized planets in the solar system, specifically Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, with the ring current system at Earth. Providing a description of the most important space weather effects driven by inner magnetospheric energetic particles during geomagnetic storms and present capabilities for their nowcast and forecast, Ring Current Investigations is an important reference for researchers in geophysics and space science, especially related to plasma physics, the ionosphere and magnetosphere, solar-terrestrial relations, and spacecraft anomalies. - Includes an appendix with links to downloadable video clips, illustrating features of ring current and geomagnetic storm dynamics - Provides overview of existing state-of-the-art numerical models and links for open-source code downloads - Offers guidance on how to develop numerical models within the context of the present-day understanding

Book An Analysis of Sources and Predictability of Geomagnetic Storms

Download or read book An Analysis of Sources and Predictability of Geomagnetic Storms written by Jean Uwamahoro and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[Man's] life consists in a relation with all things: stone, earth, trees, flowers, water, insects, fishes, birds, creatures, sun, rainbow, children, women, other men. But his greatest and final relation is with the sun..".by David Herbert. In addition to sustaining life on our planet Earth, the Sun is a source of various phenomena that controls both terrestrial and space weather. This book introduces the reader to the basic science governing the Solar-Terrestrial interactions. It outlines some fundamental principals of solar activity and related solar storms which, by interaction with the earth's magnetosphere can often lead to the disruption of the human modern infrastructures. This is known as space weather and various aspects of it are briefly described in this document. In addition to the theoretical description of the solar-terrestrial phenomena, their systematic monitoring and analysis is done with focus on solar activity cycle twenty three period. As one of the primary goals in space physics study is to develop models to predict space weather, this aspect has also been described in this book.
