abstract = "We present a review on the interplanetary causes of intense
geomagnetic storms (Dsta parts per thousand currency signa'100
nT), that occurred during solar cycle 23 (1997-2005). It was
reported that the most common interplanetary structures leading to
the development of intense storms were: magnetic clouds, sheath
fields, sheath fields followed by a magnetic cloud and corotating
interaction regions at the leading fronts of high speed streams.
However, the relative importance of each of those driving
structures has been shown to vary with the solar cycle phase.
Superintense storms (Dsta parts per thousand currency signa'250
nT) have been also studied in more detail for solar cycle 23,
confirming initial studies done about their main interplanetary
causes. The storms are associated with magnetic clouds and sheath
fields following interplanetary shocks, although they frequently
involve consecutive and complex ICME structures. Concerning
extreme storms (Dsta parts per thousand currency signa'400 nT),
due to the poor statistics of their occurrence during the space
era, only some indications about their main interplanetary causes
are known. For the most extreme events, we review the Carrington
event and also discuss the distribution of historical and space
era extreme events in the context of the sunspot and Gleissberg
solar activity cycles, highlighting a discussion about the
eventual occurrence of more Carrington-type storms.",
