The Role of Tectonic Plate Thickness and Mantle Conductance in Determining Regional Vulnerability to Extreme Space Weather Events: Possible Enhancement of Magnetic Source Fields by Secondary Induction in the Asthenosphere
Abstract During magnetic storms, solar‐magnetosphere‐ionosphere‐Earth interactions give rise to geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) in man‐made technological conductors such as power grids, gas pipelines, and railway networks with potentially damaging outcomes. Generally, electrically conductive...
