The solar wind is essentially time dependent. There are many timescales of interest: the 11 year period of solar activity, the 26 day solar rotation period, and shorter scales related to other unsteady phenomena originating at the Sun. In this study we analyze the behavior of the supersonic solar wind taking into account the formation of corotating interaction regions (CIR) due to the fast and slow solar wind interactions. The solution obtained is used as a starting point to study a three-dimensional evolution of 2000 global merged interaction region (GMIR) and the 2003 Halloween event in the distant heliosphere. The results are compared with the Voyagers data.
