Scientific paper

Pioneer Venus Orbiter measurements of magnetic field and plasma are presently used to investigate the relative position of the Venus ionosheath intermediate transition (IT) and ionospheric plasma clouds. Both features are found to occur as different events. The IT represents the outer boundary of the region where plasma clouds are observed; the solar wind magnetic field experiences different changes in both cases. There is a strong rotation of the magnetic field direction and a decrease in magnetic field intensity to low values across the IT.
