The last 4 years have seen an explosion of studies of magnetotail structure and dynamics. Growth in our understanding of the coupling of the magnetotail to the inner magnetosphere and ionosphere and the response of the magnetotail to solar wind dynamics has been made possible because of the International Solar Terrestrial Physics (ISTP) program. In addition, the sophistication of global modeling techniques and algorithms have allowed direct comparison of in situ data with realistic global models to understand better not only the general structure of the magnetosphere but also its dynamics. This brief review will discuss in situ observations made during the ISTP era and attempt to place them into a global context. Magnetotail structure and its dynamics due to external and internal drivers will be the main focus.
