Francia, P., Lepidi, S., Villante, U., Di Giuseppe, P. and Lazarus, A.J. (1999). Geomagnetic response at low latitude to continuous solar wind pressure variations during northward interplanetary magnetic field. Journal of Geophysical Research 104: doi: 10.1029/1999JA900229. issn: 0148-0227.

A study of the geomagnetic field response to a series of continuous solar wind pressure variations has been performed at a low-latitude station during interplanetary events characterized by stable northward magnetic field conditions. The geomagnetic field H component responds well to the solar wind pressure changes on a timescale of few minutes. The amplitude of the geomagnetic field response is found to depend on local time, showing greater values around local noon and midnight. ¿ 1999 American Geophysical Union
