• Quantifying the daily economic impact of extreme space weather due to failure in electricity transmission infrastructure (2017, background): “There have been a number of ex post analyses of Carrington which estimate the size of the event to be 850 nT ≤Dst ≤ 1760 nT [Tsurutani et al., 2003; Siscoe et al., 2006; Tsurutani et al., 2012], roughly 1.”
• The 1859 space weather event revisited: limits of extreme activity (2013, background): “Siscoe et al. (2006) noted that standard Dst is an hourly-average index while the -1600 nT measurement from Colaba was a spot reading.”
• A major solar eruptive event in July 2012: Defining extreme space weather scenarios (2013, background): “However, more careful analysis [Siscoe et al., 2006] has suggested that an equilibrium solution of the equation describing the solar wind forcing of the magnetosphere would lead to Dst~ 850 nT for the Carrington event.”
• On the probability of occurrence of extreme space weather events (2012, background): “, 2005], although this was later revised, and reduced by a factor of two to 850 nT [Siscoe et al., 2006].”
• A 21st Century View of the March 1989 Magnetic Storm (2019, background): “(Estimated Dst values of −850 to −1,760 nT for the 1859 Carrington storm and estimated Dst value of −907 nT for the May 1921 storm place these events as the largest in modern times; Siscoe et al., 2006; Tsurutani et al., 2003; Hayakawa et al., 2019; Love et al., 2019.)”
• Generation of 100‐year geomagnetically induced current scenarios (2012, background): “Possibly the strongest geomagnetic storm in the recorded history is the Carrington event of September 1-2, 1859 (e.g., Tsurutani et al., 2003; Siscoe et al., 2006).”
