We apply the Kobel and Fluckiger (1994, https://doi.org/10.1029/94JA01778) model and the Romashets and Vandas (2019, https://doi.org/10.1029/2006JA012072) model complemented with the Jelinek et al. (2012, https://doi.org/10.1029/2011JA017252) empirical determination of the bow shock and magnetopause shapes and positions. The models yield a satisfactory match to observations when the positions and shapes of the bow shock and the magnetopause are controlled by the instantaneous solar wind upstream dynamic pressure and the instantaneous upstream interplanetary magnetic field vector is taken into account.
