Short summary
This paper describes the development of empirical models that are capable of predicting Pc3 pulsation intensity from solar wind parameters (e.g. plasma flow speed, proton density, and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientation). We also calculate the typical timescales at which different solar wind parameters influence the excitation of these waves: solar wind speed influences pulsation intensity at much longer timescales (about 2 days) than IMF orientation (about 1 hour).
