Using density and speed time profiles of the solar wind measured by the ACE1 spacecraft we demonstrate the possibility to separate passage of the shock waves from passage of the magnetic clouds. We estimate the size and the strength of magnetic field for magnetized clouds and shock waves, causing strong geomagnetic storms. The magnitude of magnetic field of the shock waves estimated by this method equals to (2 - 4.5) · 10-4 Gs. Obtained values are in good agreement with values of direct ACE measurements and are ten fold bigger compared with estimate obtained by measuring of time profiles of Forbush decreases.
