Magnetic Storms Events

1. Name of Database:  Magnetic Storms Events

2. Institution:  Solar-Terrestrial Environment Laboratory, Nagoya University

3. Contents of Database:

The Magnetic Storm Events Database includes various types of data (e.g., geomagnetic field data, 
geomagnetic indices, solar wind, and IMF) during special magnetic storm periods (e.g., a period 
in which a number of magnetic storms took place, and a period in which various types of 
high-quality data were available).

The aim of this database is to analyze magnetic storms in detail from various points of view.  
Some parts of this database, such as "1979 Magnetic Storm Data" and "1994 Substorm/Storm Data,
" have been used for several research topics, and many papers have been published.

4. Examples of Database:

Geomagnetic activity on 21 - 22 March 1979.  From top to bottom, H-components observed at six 
low-latitude geomagnetic stations, Dst index, ASY index, AU index, and AL index, are shown.
