Severe and Extreme Events 1998-2013

Severe and Extreme Events 1998-2013. Random thoughts. A total of 43 events since 1998 meet one of the criteria of Kp >=8m, Ap >=100, Dst <=-150. Avg Dst = -214; Ap = 121 15 of these meet only one of the criteria 7 of these are Kp =8m. Seems to make sense to remove these

  1. Severe and Extreme Events1998-2013

  2. Random thoughts • A total of 43 events since 1998 meet one of the criteria of Kp>=8m, Ap>=100, Dst<=-150. • AvgDst= -214; Ap = 121 • 15 of these meet only one of the criteria • 7 of these are Kp=8m. • Seems to make sense to remove these • AvgDst = -100; Ap=74 • 1 is Kp=8z, 2 are Kp=8p, 1 is Ap=108, 4 are Dst=[-157,-159,-166,-181] • 7 meet only two of the criteria • 3 meet Ap & Kp; 3 meet Kp & Dst; 1 meets Ap & Dst • 21 meet all three of the criteria • 3 of these have Kp=9z (extreme)

  3. Paper OutlineHow will DSCOVR perform during extremes of SWx? • Intro: How will DSCOVR perform and where it improves on what we had previously. • How we define severe/extreme • DSCOVR would have provided perfect data for 40/41 severe/extreme geomagnetic storms: Velocity: Only 2 events with velocity > 1238 km/s • We’ll know it’s >1238km/s (and ~24 hours out of 15 years) • I need to pin down the speed during the 41 events • For events with no ACE or WIND, check SOHO, but also, use difference between Shock Arrival and SI • Comment on average time between L1 and beginning of significant storm intensities • Proton contamination during severe events • Independent of geomagnetic storm size • Proton contamination alone can still cause issues • An additional 14 periods of ACE data contaminated by protons also had data gaps in SWEPAM. • in modeling, situational awareness… • Do we have separate statistics for severe and extreme? • Plot peak Dst, Kp, Ap against peak solar wind values, Bt, Bz, V • Plot time to severe and/or extreme level from shock at ACE • Plot time to severe and/or extreme level from turn of Bz to negative

  4. Points to rebut • ‘DSCOVR…will not be capable of measuring the solar wind velocities of severe and extreme storms.’ • Speed doesn’t correlate very well with geomagnetic storm intensity • ‘It seems unlikely that far-reaching decisions, such as those involving dramatic protective measures applied to the power grid, will be possible based on observations with such a short lead time.’ • May have already been rebutted (consider dropping) • ‘Therefore, there are no and there won’t be reliable (i.e., operational) short term warnings of severe geomagnetic storms available.’ (See previous) • In discussing the use of the magnetic field signature, as in the Halloween Storm period…’For example, quasi-parallel shock geometry would not generate any shock-signature in the magnetic field during shock passage.’
