Measurements made at conjugate points on the earth's surface and in the magnetosphere between spacecraft altitudes and the ground provide information on the nature of the modes of the magnetohydrodynamic waves excited in the magnetosphere. This paper reviews the available data on wave modes and concludes that near L = 4 (corresponding to geomagnetic latitudes of about 60 deg) the mode for waves in the period range from 20 to 200 sec is predominantly odd mode. This may be a fundamental aspect of the physical process that couples the driving source to the resonant field line. For other geomagnetic and frequency ranges, there is presently a disappointing dearth of experimental observations.
