The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A new model for the prediction of Dst on the basis of the solar wind (2002, background): “However, all magnetospheric current systems affectDst and the relative contribution of the ring current toDst remains uncertain [Feldstein et al., 2000; Turner et al., 2000] though the ring current is certainly an important contributor during magnetic storms [Gonzalez et al., 1994].”
Space Weather: Terrestrial Perspective (2007, background): “While during quiet times the contributions from the other current systems can be assumed to be small, during magnetic storms (exactly when the indices are most needed) all currents intensify and move closer to the Earth such that the contributions from the other systems can be as large as 50% (Turne”
High-resolution global storm index: Dst versus SYM-H (2006, background): “For example, it is estimated that the tail current contributes about one quarter to the total of the horizontal magnetic field [Turner et al., 2000].”
