abstract = "Interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) can reach the
Earth[U+05F3]s magnetosphere causing magnetic disturbances. For
monitoring purposes, some satellites measure the interplanetary
parameters which are related to energy transfer from solar wind
into magnetosphere, while ground-based magnetometers measure the
geomagnetic disturbance effects. Data from the ACE satellite and
from some representative magnetometers were examined here via
discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The increase in the amplitude of
wavelet coefficients of solar wind parameters and geomagnetic
field data is well-correlated with the arrival of the shock and
sheath regions, and the sudden storm commencement and main phase,
respectively. As an auxiliary tool to verify the disturbed
magnetic fields identified by the DWT, we developed a new approach
called effectiveness wavelet coefficient (EWC) methodology. The
first interpretation of the results suggests that DWT and EWC can
be effectively used to characterize the fluctuations on the solar
wind parameters and their contributions to the geomagnetic field.
Further, this kind of technique could be implemented in quasi
real-time to facilitate the identification of the shock and the
passage of the sheath region which sometimes can be followed by
geoeffective magnetic clouds. Also, the technique shows to be very
useful for the identification of time intervals in the dataset
during geomagnetic storms which are associated to interplanetary
parameters under very well defined conditions. It allows selecting
ideal events for investigation of magnetic reconnection in order
to highlight in a more precise manner the mechanisms existing in
the electrodynamical coupling between the solar wind and the
magnetosphere. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.",
