Abstract:
We have examined the ISEE-3 distant tail data during three intense (Dst< -100<sub>n</sub>T) magnetic storms and have identified the tail response to high speed solar wind streams, interplanetary magnetic clouds, and near-Earth storms. The three storms have a peak Dst ranging from -150 to -220 nT, and occur on Jan. 9, Feb. 4, and Aug. 8, 1993.
