One of the applications of space weather is to forecast storm events. With this aim, a great effort has to be made in the development of models that let us to predict the Dst index, as indicator of geomagnetic storms. We propose a new model that determines the Dst index from the current induced over the ring current that flows around the Earth, assuming that solar wind electric field is the responsible of these variations. We also study which are the triggers of intense geomagnetic storms both at interplanetary space and at the Sun, and their dependence with solar cycle.
