The analysis of structure and spatial and temporal evolution of ion distribution as an important source of information about the dissipative processes in the front of collisionless shock is addressed. Nonstationarity of ion distribution function and kinetic overturning are investigated. From the results obtained it is evident that the magnetic disturbance due to modulation of the main part of ion flow is nonlinear and cannot be calculated with the aid of the given model. It is proven that the nonstationary ion currents in the strong shock generate intense fast magnetosonic waves in the low frequency waves.
