The locations of Cluster 1 and 3 spacecraft at 15:00 UT on February 11, 2007, projected onto the GSM XZ plane. The two dashed curves show the modelled magnetopause locations for the solar wind dynamic pressures of 0.14 nPa and 2.1 nPa. Grey curves show selected geomagnetic field lines based on the T96 model (Tsyganenko and Sterm 1996) under the low solar-wind dynamic pressure of 0.14 nPa
