Beginning
Year 1 |
Comparative study of 2 magnetic storms triggered by different SW drivers (CME vs. high speed stream).
Candidate events will be displayed on web site & e-mailed to community.
Request that comments on satellite and ground based data availabil-ity, solar wind drivers, other interesting aspects be sent to Geoff Reeves. Also other storm suggestions
Selection of events by Fall AGU meeting.
Candidate events include:
25-29 Aug 1990
4-5 June 1991
7-10 July 1991
15-18 May 1997
17-18 Feb 1998
2-10 May 1998
Send out query to GEM community with the detailed strategy document & details of events selected
Solicit participation of the Storm Event campaign
Start a web site housing data and model outputs from the storm study
|
Send out query to GEM community with the detailed strategy document
Solicit participation of core efforts from each participant
Request descriptions of core efforts from each participant
Table of participants and their interests will be listed and continuously updated on a web site for the community
In addition, participants will be actively recruited to fill gaps in the strategy, and/or supply crucial models, data sets of boundary conditions.
These studies will be carried out throughout the 4 year campaign
Anticipate special GEM sessions and debates and paper sets to result from these small scale but crucial studies.

Subsequent
Years |
Phase in other comparative storm studies as appropriate. Would like to examine solar max vs. solar min, small vs. intense, single-dip vs. double-dip Dst, etc. |
Strong input to, & collaboration with, larger storm studies due to continuous improvements in understanding and modeling of important physical processes.
New gaps may be identified by major storm studies and added to strategy
