Introduction Geomagnetic storm is an important phenomenon in space weather. Space weather includes activities on the sun, and their associated effects on the Earth (HKO). Geomagnetic storms can disrupt our technology, from telecommunication to electricity, the fundamental basis of technology. With more sophisticated and widespread use of technology, geomagnetic storm becomes more threatening to us. Therefore, we should be more aware of geomagnetic storms. In this essay, I will first discuss the
days with widely varying intensity. The intensity of the atmospheric radiations, vary with altitude, location in the geomagnetic field, and the time in the sun’s magnetic activity (solar) cycle. GCR consist of roughly 90% of protons and 8% of helium nuclei with the remainder
articles I choose are about Geomagnetism, magnetic storms and USGS Geomagnetism Program. This program monitors geomagnetically induced currents. Even though these currents always flow through infrastructures that can conduct electricity, too much of it can cause a disturbance, known as Magnetic disturbance. One of the most known disturbances, also one of the largest geomagnetic disturbance of the twentieth century is the great magnetic
