Relation between substorm characteristics and rapid temporal variations of the ground magnetic field [PDF]
Auroral substorms are one of the major causes of large geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) in technological systems. This study deals with different phases of the auroral substorm concerning their severity from the GIC viewpoint. Our database consists

Measurement on the Geomagnetic Induced Current (GIC) at low latitude region in Malaysia
Abstract This paper study the existent of geomagnetic induced current (GIC) in Malaysia. The location for GIC measurement is conducted at Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) substation 33KV transformer in Malaysia. The measurement is taken at the neutral cable of the 33KV transformer which is grounded to the earth. In order to verify the result

Space Weather Impact on the Scandinavian Interconnected Power Transmission System [PDF]
Geomagnetic storms (GMS) can seriously affect high voltage transmission power grids. More specifically, GMS can inject geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) into the power network, thus causing instabilities and eventually leading to grid collapse ...

April 2000 geomagnetic storm: ionospheric drivers of large geomagnetically induced currents [PDF]
Geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) flowing in technological systems on the ground are a direct manifestation of space weather. Due to the proximity of very dynamic ionospheric current systems, GIC are of special interest at high latitudes ...

Review of Geomagnetically Induced Current Proxies in Mid-Latitude European Countries
The Quebec blackout on 13 March 1989, has made geomagnetically induced current (GIC) research a socially important field of study. It is widely recognized that the effects of space weather, which may affect the power infrastructure, threaten countries ...

Nuclear Magnetohydrodynamic EMP, Solar Storms, and Substorms
In addition to a fast electromagnetic pulse (EMP), a high altitude nuclear burst produces a relatively slow magnetohydrodynarnic EMP (MHD EMP), whose effects are like those from solar storm geomagnetically induced currents (SS GIC).
