Data from the wave experiment on AMPTE UKS and IRM spacecraft were used to study small scale phenomena including flux transfer events (FTE) and active current sheets in the solar wind. Results are reviewed to highlight aspects of Cluster scientific studies. Limits of wave experiments are shown. Use of wave data alone is not sufficient to easily distinguish an FTE or magnetic hole from brief magnetopause encounters, or an active solar wind current sheet from bow shock crossings. Thus the most effective event recognition is likely to use data from magnetic field, wave, and plasma instruments for identification, and wave data for timing.
