Effects of Lateral Conductivity Variations on Geomagnetically Induced Currents: H-Polarization
H-polarization, along with E-polarization, indicates the lateral variations of the Earth conductivity, which influence the induced electric field distribution.

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).

Drastic time variations of transfer function of geomagnetically induced current (GIC) in Japan
Abstract Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) flow in power grid in response to geomagnetic field variations. Because of the potential threat of power outage, GIC is regarded as one of the important aspects of space weather. We calculated the transfer function in frequency domain that describes a linear relationship between the GICs measured

Geomagnetically Induced Currents in the Irish Power Network during Geomagnetic Storms
Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are a well-known terrestrial space weather hazard. They occur in power transmission networks and are known to have adverse effects in both high and mid-latitude countries.

A Mitigation Method Based on the Principle of GIC-Even Distribution in Whole Power Grids
The geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) caused by geomagnetic storms can inflict the anomalous operation of power systems, damaging electrical equipment, or even resulting in a large-area blackout of power systems.

Long Period Magnetotellurics (MT) using Geomagnetically Induced Currents in the Scottish Power Network [PDF]
Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GIC) which flow in technological systems such as power transmission grids, are a consequence of the geoelectric field induced at the surface of the Earth during geomagnetic storms. We use an electrical model of the power

Abstract Auroral substorms are a key manifestation of solar‐terrestrial interactions and the release of energy within the Earth's magnetosphere. The expansion phase, which is characterized by rapid changes in auroral morphology and intensity, poses significant space weather risks to satellite operations and communication systems.

Climatological Statistics of Extreme Geomagnetic Fluctuations With Periods From 1 s to 60 min
Using a global database of 125 magnetometers covering several decades, we present occurrence statistics for fluctuations of the horizontal geomagnetic field (dBh/dt) exceeding the 99.97th percentile (P99.97) for both ramp changes (Rn) and the root‐mean ...

The Gannon Storm's Impact on Electric and Magnetic Fields in Italy: A Regional Perspective
Abstract The intense May 2024 geomagnetic storm provided an opportunity to conduct the first analysis of geoelectric hazards in Italy. Data from three geomagnetic observatories and a magnetotelluric station were analyzed to examine the spatiotemporal evolution of storm‐induced variations.
