Localized Threats: How Ground Conductivity Shapes the Geoelectric Response

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Geomagnetic storms can induce strong geoelectric fields in the ground. These fields drive geomagnetically induced currents in technological conductor systems, such as power grids. In this study, we analyze 4‐hr periods of two such major geomagnetic storms: the Halloween storm (29–31 October 2003) and the 7–8 September 2017 storm.

Comparison of Geoelectric Fields Computed by the Complex Image, Magnetotelluric, and Finite‐Difference Time‐Domain Methods

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract It is important to be able to accurately predict geoelectric field behavior so that potential space weather hazards to large grounded infrastructure, such as electric power grids, smart grids, oil and gas pipelines, and railway systems, can be better understood.

Assessment of Extreme Storm and Cumulative Risks to the New Zealand Gas Pipeline Network From Space Weather

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Space weather results in risks to gas pipelines in the form of both hazardous levels of pipe‐to‐soil potentials during extreme geomagnetic storms, and accumulated corrosion through less severe, but continuous geomagnetic activity. Here we report on calculations of pipe‐to‐soil potentials during a simulated extreme storm, using both direct ...

Solar‐Wind Triggering of Substorm Onset During the May 2024 Superstorm: Coordinated Global Observations and Simulations

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Substorms are often described by a loading‐unloading cycle, where onset follows gradual accumulation of solar wind magnetic flux in the magnetosphere. Yet observations indicate that intense substorms can also be directly driven, though the underlying mechanism remains unresolved.

Characterisation of grain orientated electrical steels under high DC biased conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Power transformers are designed to operate under pure AC excitation, however they may be subjected to superimposed DC voltages and consequential offset currents, for example from geomagnetically induced currents, GICs, arising from solar activity.

Methodology for simulation of geomagnetically induced currents in power systems

open access: yesJournal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2014
To assess the geomagnetic hazard to power systems it is useful to be able to simulate the geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) that are produced during major geomagnetic disturbances.
