Solar‐Wind Triggering of Substorm Onset During the May 2024 Superstorm: Coordinated Global Observations and Simulations

Yong Ren, Minghui Zhu, Lei Dai, Walter Gonzalez et al. • Geophysical Research Letters (2026)

Abstract Substorms are often described by a loading‐unloading cycle, where onset follows gradual accumulation of solar wind magnetic flux in the magnetosphere. Yet observations indicate that intense substorms can also be directly driven, th...
