“…For example, the initiation and evolution of the Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) along the magnetopause surface are due primarily to a significant velocity shear across the boundary. The resulting Kelvin-Helmholtz waves evolve into quasi-periodic vortices traveling anti-sunward along the magnetopause flanks, and have been observed by various spacecraft sampling the in situ plasma and/or fields (e.g., Southwood, 1979;Kivelson and Chen, 1995;Miura, 1995;Fairfield et al, 2000;Hasegawa et al, 2004Hasegawa et al, , 2006Hasegawa et al, , 2009Nykyri, 2013;Hwang, 2015;Nykyri and Dimmock, 2015;Plaschke, 2016). Kelvin-Helmholtz waves occurring at the magnetopause have also been studied in association with waves generated interior to the magnetopause.…”
