On the Relationship of Interplanetary Pressure Pulses and Subsequent Auroral ActivityThe relation between interplanetary pressure pulses and subsequent auroral breakup is examined using over 70 cases from 1997 to 1999. A solar wind-magnetosphere coupling parameter (based on Bargatze et al., Solar Wind-Magnetosphere Coupling, Terra Scientific Publishing Co., p. 101- 109, 1986) is used to correlate the amount of energy stored in the magnetospheric to the time delay for auroral activity relative to the SW pressure enhancement.
