Changes in the maximum ionization density in the ionospheric E layer in the area of the daytime cusp are analyzed. The maximum ionization density is found to vary with universal time, season, and phase of the solar activity cycle. Seasonal variation is about 10 times, cyclic variation is 1.6 times, and the daily variation with universal time ranges from 1.2 to 5 times depending on the season. A corresponding variation is noted in the intensity of magnetic disturbances in the near-polar region in connection with the azimuthal component of the interplanetary magnetic field. Provided the ionization density of the daytime cusp is known, the magnitude and sign of the azimuthal component of the interplanetary magnetic field can be determined from the space-time distribution of variations in the Z component of the magnetic field, corrected for intensity variations of the flux system with universal time, obtained from ground measurements.
