Abstract
The most detrimental geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) documented to date have all taken place during geomagnetic storms. Yet, the probability of GICs throughout geomagnetic storms driven by different solar wind transients, such as high-speed streams/stream interaction regions (HSS/SIR) or interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) sheaths and magnetic clouds (MC), is poorly understood. We present an algorithm to detect geomagnetic storms and storm phases, resulting in a catalog of 755 geomagnetic storms from January 1996 to June 2023 with the solar wind drivers. Using these storms and the IMAGE magnetometer network, we study the temporal and spatial evolution of spikes in the time derivative of the horizontal component of the external magnetic field, , greater than 0.5 nT/s during geomagnetic storms driven by HSS/SIR, sheaths and MCs. Spikes occur more often toward the end of the storm main phase for HSS/SIR and MC-driven storms, while sheaths have spikes throughout the entire main phase. During the main phase most spikes occur in the morning sector around 05 magnetic local time (MLT) and the extent in MLT is narrowest for MCs and widest for sheaths. However, spikes in the pre-midnight sector during the main and recovery phases are most prominent for HSS/SIR-driven storms. During the storm sudden commencement (SSC), three MLT hotspots exist, the post-midnight at 04 MLT, pre-noon at 09 MLT and afternoon at 15 MLT. The pre-noon hotspot has the highest probability of spikes and the widest extent in magnetic latitude.
迄今为止记录的最具破坏性的地磁诱导流(GIC)都发生在地磁暴期间。然而,人们对由不同太阳风瞬态(如高速流/流相互作用区(HSS/SIR)或行星际日冕物质抛射(ICME)鞘和磁云(MC))驱动的地磁暴中出现地磁诱导电流的概率还知之甚少。我们提出了一种探测地磁暴和风暴阶段的算法,从而得到了 1996 年 1 月至 2023 年 6 月期间 755 次地磁暴的目录,其中包括太阳风驱动因素。利用这些风暴和 IMAGE 磁强计网络,我们研究了外磁场水平分量的时间导数(| d H e x t / d t | $\vert \mathrm{d}{\boldsymbol{H}}_{\mathrm{e}\mathrm{x}\mathrm{t}}/\mathrm{d}t\vert $ ,大于 0.5 nT/s。在 HSS/SIR 和 MC 驱动的风暴中,尖峰更频繁地出现在风暴主阶段的末期,而鞘则在整个主阶段都有尖峰出现。在主阶段,大多数尖峰出现在当地磁场时间(MLT)上午 5 点左右,MLT 的范围在 MC 中最窄,在鞘中最宽。然而,对于 HSS/SIR 驱动的风暴,主阶段和恢复阶段午夜前扇区的峰值最为突出。在风暴突然开始(SSC)期间,存在三个分层光度计热点,分别是午夜后分层光度计 04 点、午前分层光度计 09 点和午后分层光度计 15 点。午前热点出现尖峰的概率最高,磁纬度范围也最广。
