Geomagnetic storms represent one of the most spectacular and disruptive manifestations of enhanced energy flow from the solar wind to the near Earth space environment that we know of. And, one of the longest standing unresolved problems in storm research has been the determination of the role that individual substorms play in this process. In large part, the slow progress in resolving this question stems from our inability to adequately separate the spatial and temporal effects of the magnetospheric processes associated with storms. However, we now have a sizeable constellation of spacecraft operating in the magnetosphere with in-situ and/or global imaging capabilities including: CLUSTER (4 spacecraft), POLAR, IMAGE, Geosynchronous (6-8 spacecraft), and GPS (several spacecraft). We present detailed analyses of several events observed during the Summer/Fall of 2001 when the CLUSTER apogee was situated in the nightside tail. In particular, we focus on the global behavior of recurrent ``embedded'' substorms (including those associated with "sawtooth" injections).
