Scientific paper

We present an experimental study of erosion of the dayside magnetosphere, utilizing solar wind measurements from the Wind spacecraft and magnetic field measurements from the Goes spacecraft when located between 11.00-13.00 MLT. We focus on three case studies encompassing 3 levels of solar wind dynamic pressure and 3 levels of moderate, negative IMF Bz. In all cases the variation of Bz and dynamic pressure do not exceed 1 nT and 1 nPa, respectively. The AL index is analyzed to confirm that the dayside observations refer to the substorm growth phase. Particular attention is thus paid to the timing of substorms to infer the delay times for onset signatures to reach the dayside.
