The dynamics of geomagnetic substorms with the WINDMI model

Abstract The global dynamics of substorms are controlled by several key magnetospheric parameters. In this work we obtain quantitative measures of these parameters from a low-order nonlinear model of the nightside magnetosphere called WINDMI. The model uses solar wind and IMF measurements from the A...
