An investigation of the effect of realistic ionospheric Hall conductances on the hydromagnetic wave resonance axisymmetric toroidal modes shows the modes coupling to evanescent poloidal modes near the ionosphere, such that the composite modes resonate at the constant frequencies of the corresponding single-field-shell resonances for zero Hall conductance. A composite mode model is presented whose narrow but finite latitudinal resonance widths make the modes valid solutions of the hydromagnetic equations and also the bases of the suggestion that shell solutions can describe such real pulsation properties as frequency, damping and phase variations along the field-line and node-antinode behavior at the ionosphere. It is found that magnetospheric coupling dominates ionospheric coupling for any single, non-axisymmetric mode, and estimates are obtained for the range of magnetospheric coupling strength of pulsations under a variety of conditions.
