abstract = "We use complementary observations from the prototype and expanded
Global Muon Detector Network (GMDN) and the Advanced Composition
Explorer (ACE) satellite to identify precursors of geomagnetic
storm events. The GMDN was completed and started operation in
March 2006 with the addition of the Kuwait detector, complementing
the detectors at Nagoya, Hobart, and Sao Martinho da Serra.
Analyzed geomagnetic storms sorted by their intensity as measured
by the Disturbance storm-time (Dst) index. Between March 2001 and
December 2007, 122 Moderate Storms (MS), 51 Intense Storms (IS),
and 8 Super Storms (SS) were monitored by the GMDN. The major
conclusions are (i) the percentage of the events accompanied by
the precursors prior to the Sudden Storm Commencement (SSC)
increases with increasing peak Dst, (ii) 15% of MSs, 30% of ISs,
and 86% of SSs are accompanied by cosmic ray precursors observed
on average 7.2 hours in advance of the SSC. Citation: Rockenbach,
