The high variability of the Sun's magnetic field is responsible for the generation of
perturbations that propagate throughout the heliosphere. Such disturbances often drive …

Interplanetary shocks are disturbances commonly observed in the solar wind. IP shock
impacts can cause a myriad of space weather effects in the Earth's magnetopause, inner …

The occurrence of geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) poses serious threats to modern
technological infrastructure. Large GICs result from sharp variations of the geomagnetic field …

The global BATS‐R‐US MHD code is used to simulate the interaction of a moderately strong
interplanetary shock with the Earth's magnetosphere. The model predicts the propagation of …

We present a survey of interplanetary (IP) shocks using Wind and ACE satellite data from
January 1995 to December 2013 to study how IP shock geoeffectiveness is controlled by IP …

Interplanetary (IP) shocks are frequently observed in the solar wind (Burlaga, 1971; Stone
and Tsurutani, 1985). Many levels of different kinds of geomagnetic activity may follow the …

Abstract We use Open Geospace General Circulation Model global MHD simulations to
study the nightside magnetospheric, magnetotail, and ionospheric responses to …

We present the first clear observational connection between interplanetary shock impact
angles and magnetospheric ultralow frequency (ULF) wave activity. We perform a …

Abstract Previously, Tsurutani and Lakhina (2014, https://doi. org/10.1002/2013GL058825)
created estimates for a “perfect” interplanetary coronal mass ejection and performed simple …

The impact of interplanetary shocks on the magnetosphere can trigger magnetic substorms
that intensify auroral electrojet currents. These currents enhance ground magnetic field …
