This paper describes the reason for the formation of an upstream compressional front standing near magnetopause, describes its form and geometry, and explains the likely relationship between the compression region and a depletion layer. The model accounts for the variation of density and magnetic field strength with radial distance from the magnetopause and makes predictions regarding the orientation and geometry of the front.
