ABSTRACT
One of the energy sinks during solar wind magnetosphere ionosphere system is ring current injection rate which also depends on the disturbance storm time. In this paper data from world data centre Kyoto obtained at international service for geomagnetic indices was used in this studies and international service for geomagnetism and aeronomy 2002 format was adopted during the analysis. Results obtained shows that the disturbance storm time index varies with time which indicate that proper monitoring of geomagnetic indices is required for accurate energy estimates.
