Abstract The interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) north‐south component, Bz, plays a crucial role in the interaction between the solar wind and the Earth's magnetosphere. We analyze 98 intervals in which Bz changed from >3 nT to <−3 nT in 5 min and for which these rapid southward turnings (STs) were surrounded by consistently northward or southward IMF.

An estimate of average lower mantle conductivity by wavelet analysis of geomagnetic jerks [PDF]
WOS:000081900500014International audienceIt has recently been proposed that geomagnetic jerks observed at the Earth's surface could be viewed as singularities in the time behavior of the geomagnetic field with a regularity of about 1.5 when wavelet ...

Geomagnetic jerks: observation and theoretical modeling
A geomagnetic jerk is a phenomenon involving the geomagnetic field secular variation when it abruptly changes its slope. It is generally accepted that it occurs on timescales from months to a few years and is of internal Earth origin.

Dynamic evolution of amplitude and position of geomagnetic secular acceleration pulses since 2000
Recent studies on the behavior of geomagnetic secular acceleration (SA) pulses have provided a basis for understanding the dynamic processes in the Earth’s core.

On the Association of Substorm Identification Methods
Abstract Substorms are a rapid release of energy that is redistributed throughout the magnetosphere‐ionosphere system, resulting in many observable signals, such as enhancements in the aurora, energetic particle injections, and ground magnetic field perturbations.

Using spectral analysis to detect singular events such as jerks in the geomagnetic field time series
. In this study we have applied two spectral techniques in terms of Fourier and wavelet analysis to geomagnetic field time series and compared the results with those obtained from analogous analyses to synthetic data. Then, an algorithm has been proposed

The observational signature of modelled torsional waves and comparison to geomagnetic jerks [PDF]
Torsional Alfven waves involve the interaction of zonal fluid flow and the ambient magnetic field in the core. Consequently, they perturb the background magnetic field and induce a secondary magnetic field.

A core-surface flow model derived from magnetic data of Macau Science Satellite-1
The core-surface flow is crucial for understanding the dynamics of the Earth’s outer core and geomagnetic secular variations. Conventional core flow models often use a single set of spherical harmonic coefficients to represent the flow both inside and ...
