Abstract

A complex catalogue of high speed streams produced by coronal holes and their effects in the terrestrial magnetosphere – the so-called geomagnetic storms – for Solar Cycle 24 (2009 to 2019) is presented here. This catalogue is structured in three parts describing the high-speed stream characteristics, the interplanetary magnetic field state, and the properties of the associated geomagnetic storms. The catalogue is available online at http://www.geodin.ro/varsiti/.
