A note on the statistics of the largest geomagnetic storms per solar cycle

Published in Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2004

This note points out a problem with the way in which extreme value distributions have been fit to the intensities of the largest geomagnetic storms per solar cycle. An alternative method is described. This method is applied to observations of the three largest geomagnetic storms in solar cycles 11–22.
