A bivariate analysis using geomagnetic Dst(min) and auroral AE index did not improve the situation. Substitution of −Dst(min) by the ram-pressure-corrected true ring current Dst*(min) improved the correlations only slightly. Using the product V Bz instead of Bz(min) as a proxy for magnetospheric energy input did not improve the correlations, even for the 12 severe storm events in cycle 23. A multivariate analysis using −Bz(min) versus −Dst(min), with AU, AL and auroral particle precipitation index POES as additional indices improved the correlations and reduced the scatter. It was noticed, however, that for these severe storms, a major part of the solar wind input energy (not, vert, similar85%) was still going to the Dst ring current, but this had an uncertainty of not, vert, similar15%. So in any severe storm event, the ring current could receive anything from 70% to 100% of the solar wind input energy. %@mirrorrepository sid.inpe.br/mtc-m19@80/2009/08.21.17.02.53 %8 Dec. %N 14-15 %T Scatter in the plots of Dst(min) versus Bz(min) %@secondarytype PRE PI %K Scatter, Dst. %@usergroup administrator %@usergroup marciana %@group DGE-CEA-INPE-MCT-BR %3 kane.pdf %@secondarykey INPE--PRE/ %@secondarymark B1_ASTRONOMIA_/_FÍSICA A2_GEOCIÊNCIAS B1_INTERDISCIPLINAR %@issn 0032-0633 %2 sid.inpe.br/mtc-m19/2011/01.07.13.28.49 %@affiliation Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais (INPE) %B Planetary and Space Science %P 1792-1801 %4 sid.inpe.br/mtc-m19/2011/01.07.13.28 %D 2010 %V 58 %@doi 10.1016/j.pss.2010.07.026 %A Kane, R.
