7 The Astrophysics Understanding the Cause of GIC Geomagnetic Disturbance Phenomena 7
8 Coronal Mass Ejections (CME) Geomagnetic Disturbances are driven by Coronal Mass Ejections, which are masses of energized particles expelled from the sun and traveling towards earth. The earth directed mass of particles distort the earth s magnetosphere and ionosphere (the magnetosphere s inner edge), creating the geomagnetic disturbance on earth. CME originate from sunspots, which are area s of intense magnetic activity on the sun s surface. CME velocity varies (transit time to earth typically ranges between 14 and 96 hours) and there is limited correlation between it and GIC. Ref: 2012 Special Reliability Assessment, Interim Report: Effects of Geomagnetic Disturbances on the Bulk Power System, NERC 8
9 Sunspot Correlation Current Solar Cycle is falling short of predictions. However, the prediction of solar activity is still beyond our present capabilities and the Sun s activity is quite random when considering sub Solar Cycle (11 year) time frame. The big event could occur at any point in time. Source: 9

17 The Geophysics Translating CMEs to GICs 17
18 How db/dt translates to E Disturbances to the Earth s magnetic field (db/dt) produce ionospheric currents, referred to as electrojet currents. The ionospheric currents produced couple with the Earth s resistive grounding structure and circulate through all low-resistance man-made conductive paths tied to earth ground (transmission lines and pipe lines). Source: 2012 Special Reliability Assessment, Interim Report: Effects of Geomagnetic Disturbances on the Bulk Power System, NERC 18
19 E is the Key Component for Calculating GIC From a power engineering perspective, the electric field (E) on the Earth s surface is the key parameter for calculating geomagnetically induced currents. When calculating GIC the changing magnetic field db/dt) can be ignored, provided that reasonable assumptions are made for E. Most commercially available software utilizes E for GIC calculations. Prediction Theoretical maximums (worst case scenarios) can be developed with historical data. Calculated with a GIC Model db/dt E GIC Monitoring Measured using magnetometers Extrapolated using magnetometer data Measured using neutral current monitoring 19
20 Simplification of Maxwell s Equations Mathematically, E can be calculated by simplifying Maxwell s Equations. Using the Complex Image Method (CIM), which assumes that currents equal to the induced ionosphere currents are superimposed on the earth, and an adequate ground conductivity model. The calculation is further simplified by using frequency domain analysis. Maxwell s Equations CIM Ground Conductivity Structure (ohm m) Change in Earth s Magnetic Field with Respect to Time (nt or Vs/m 2 ) Electric Field (V/m) Vacuum Permeability (Vs/Am) Ref: Geomagnetically Induced Currents as Ground Effects of Space Weather, 2012, R.

23 Important Notes on Ground Models Ground modeling is an important part in determining E for a given system area. The low frequency and the corresponding deep skin depth of the ground induced currents requires detailed earth conductivity models that extend to depths of several hundred kilometers. The success of present geophysical research and the validity of the present State of the Art GIC modeling techniques are greatly dependent on the accuracy of the ground conductivity models being used. The USGS has just recently completed a 1-D Ground Conductivity survey of the continental United States. This data is now incorporated into NERC Draft Standard TPL There is a concern that 1-D ground modeling is insufficient and that even more detailed 3-D ground modeling may be necessary. A second concern not well addressed with the USGS 1-D models is the costal boundary effect. Measurement data is suggesting that land bordering highly conductivity bodies of salt water is subject to more intense electrojet current induction and hence higher E. 23
24 Geomagnetic Latitudes Magnetic north pole presently tilted over northern Canada. In general GMDs pose a greater risk for North America Source: 24
25 E Field Variations with Respect to Latitude Worst case is generally at lat. > 50 and < 50 Approximate Mean Recent work suggests the Equatorial Electrojet Intensification is a the cause and indicates this is a valid measurement, meaning high GIC could be seen at southern latitudes.
