Short summary
From the statistical analysis of potential plasmaspheric plume, we find that there is almost no correlation between plume width and the level of geomagnetic storm intensity. However, for plumes in the recovery phase after improved sifting, there is a negative correlation between the plume width and absolute value of minimum Dst during the storm. We suggest that the plasmaspheric particles may escape quickly during intense storms, causing plume to be relatively narrow during the recovery phase.
