Short summary
A methodology is developed to simplify the mathematical description of activity in a time-dependent driven system. The method describes the response in the system that is most-closely related to the driver. This reduced description has advantages: low noise, high prediction efficiency, linearity in the described system response to the driver, and compactness. The analysis of the Earth’s magnetospheric system is demonstrated.
