Abstract
The structure of high-energy solar proton penetration sones in the pol ar and subpolar regions using data from riometers, transpolar satellit e DMSP-F6, and neutron monitors during an extremely anisotropic solar proton event on February 16, 1984, has been studied. Particular emphas is was placed upon interpretation of the solar proton intensity maximu m located at the auroral and nearby latitudes. Precipitation of quasi- trapped particles drifting along the latitudinal direction from the en try site of the anisotropic flux at the dawnside of the magnetosphere is discussed as a cause of this maximum.
