Analysis of interplanetary perturbations associated with Forbush decreases (Fds) during 1965 to 1974 confirms that Type 4 solar flares are the origin of these perturbations. The front perturbation is a wide (100 deg in longitude) driven shock followed by a magnetic blob and a high-speed plasma cloud of 0.5 AU average radial dimension at the Earth orbit, emitted in a short time interval ( 15hr) immediately following the onset of the Type 4 burst. The Fd-modulated region is included between two boundary streams which rotate with the Sun; therefore the Fd can be observed also in the interplanetary regions which were not swept by the front perturbation. The Fd-amplitude is correlated with an empirical parameter which accounts for the importance of the shock and magnetic blob at the front perturbation.
