Solar wind and geosynchronous orbit data for over 400 storms (minimum Dst < -30 nT) from 1989 through 2002 have been categorized according to various storm parameters (minimum Dst, peak solar wind pressure, minimum interplanetary Bz, main phase length, and peak plasma sheet density, and solar cycle phase, for example). The superposed epoch averages of the data in some of these categories are presented and discussed. Morphological differences in the geosynchronous response as a function of storm category are detailed. The implications of these results for the stormtime ring current are also explored. The averaged upstream conditions are used as input to the Comprehensive Space Environment Model (CSEM) to simulate each of these storm classifications. Initial results of these numerical experiments are presented and discussed. Finally, comparisons of observations and model results at geosynchronous orbit are given (1) to assess the quality of the CSEM results and (2) to quantitatively examine the ring current dynamics.
