Energetic electron response to ULF waves induced by interplanetary shocks in the outer radiation belt (2009, background): “[6] The ULF waves, on the other hand, can be excited with much larger amplitudes than the VLF waves in the magnetosphere by Kelvin-Helmholtz instability [Kivelson and Pu, 1984; Hudson et al., 2004; Claudepierre et al., 2008] and solar wind dynamic pressure variations [ Kepko and Spence, 2003; Hudso”

Magnetohydrodynamic Oscillations in the Solar Corona and Earth’s Magnetosphere: Towards Consolidated Understanding (2016, background): “Kepko and Spence (2003), however, found the same spectral peaks appearing simultaneously in the solar wind and ground Pc5 pulsations, suggesting that the observed magnetospheric waves were directly driven by the solar wind fluctuations.”
