Abstract
Transient decrease in cosmic ray intensity following by a slow recovery typically lasting for several days is identified as Forbush decrease (Fd) event. As a result the geomagnetic index (Dst) decreased up to 300 nT, indicating a large geomagnetic storm and the percentage Fd decrease has gone to 16% giving rise a cosmic ray storm. Both events coincided with interplanetary conditions. Therefore, a systematic study has been performed to investigate the variation of cosmic ray intensity along with the interplanetary and geomagnetic disturbances. Results indicate a strong relationship between geomagnetic activity and Forbush decrease on short-term basis. Two types of interplanetary transient disturbances, namely magnetic cloud events and bidirectional events are analyzed to study the short-term changes in the solar wind (SW) plasma components as well as in cosmic ray intensity.
