Solar wind-magnetosphere coupling functions on timescales of 1 day to 1 year
There are no direct observational methods for determining the total rate at which energy is extracted from the solar wind by the magnetosphere. In the absence of such a direct measurement, alternative means of estimating the energy available to drive the magnetospheric system have been developed...
