Scientific paper

The effect of the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) on variations in the equatorial magnetosphere is investigated with attention to the Bz component, which controls the transfer of energy from the solar wind into the magnetosphere, and from there into the lower atmosphere. Because of the substantial time dependence of low latitude variations, observing stations were widely spaced longitudinally. Data obtained from the storm time variations of April 9, 1971 were digitized at three minute intervals at each station. Common features in the observed periods of oscillation are considered distinct signatures of IMF.
