The corotating variation of various heliospheric quantities at 1 AU is studied statistically for the 20th solar cycle, and the results are organized and presented as a function of the ordinal days in the Carrington rotation. The basic parameters are discussed. The average corotating variation of the heliospheric quantities shows a marked two-peak feature characterizing the two-stream structure of the longitudinal distribution of the coronal hole high-speed stream in the Carrington rotation. The various energy densities and flux densities reach their maxima in the interaction region between the high and low-speed streams. The high-speed stream always has the higher sonic velocities and pressure to kinetic energy ratios, and in particular, lower Mach numbers in comparison with the low-speed stream. On the average, the plasma beta parameter is insensitive to the variation in the coronal hole high-speed stream.
