Large-amplitude morning Pc5 magnetic pulsations during the main phase of intense magnetic storm were registered at magnetic stations of 190-200° magnetic meridians on January 21-22, 2005. Magnetic pulsations in the Pc5 frequency range observed at the GOES 10, 12 satellites in the noon and evening sectors exhibited a high degree of magnetic compessibility. A Los Alamos particle detector on board geostationary satellite observed the occurrence of energetic particle flux oscillations in the Pc5 band. The Pc5 pulsations were followed with the VLF-emission and riometer absorption modulation with the same period. The regions of maximal amplitude of Pc5 geomagnetic pulsations and deep modulation of riometer absorptions shifted to high latitudes in the same way. Significant and long-lasting compression of magnetosphere led, probably, to moderate pitch-angle diffusion of particle into the loss cone even at the middle latitudes. Analysis of coordinated data allowed us to suggest that a modulation effects of precipitating particles are caused by a compressional waves.

In the present study we investigate the undulations at the equatorial boundary of diffuse aurora and their relationship to the development of magnetic and auroral substorms and excitation of Pc5 magnetic pulsation on January 14, 1999. The observed undulations had wave-length of ~200-300 km and amplitude of ~50-250 km and they propagated westward with the velocity of ~0,7 km/s. It is found that the undulations began ~40 min after the substorm onset and lasted for ~80 min, all the way to the end of the substorm. During both active and recovery phases of the substorm the undulations were accompanied by the enhancement of the DP2 equivalent current system and by the formation of WTS. Concurrently with undulations, there were observed Pc5 magnetic pulsations of an oscillation period roughly equal to the ratio of the undulation wavelength to their propagation velocity. Observations are interpreted in terms of the shear/ballooning instability excitation near the plasmapause and subsequent generation of drift hydromagnetic waves.
