Time-varying magnetotail magnetic flux calculation: a test of the method

We modified the Petrinec and Russell (1996) algorithm to allow the computation of time-varying magnetotail magnetic flux based on simultaneous spacecraft measurements in the magnetotail and near-Earth solar wind. In view of many assumptions made we tested the algorithm against MHD simulation in...
