We report on an extended interval of giant pulsation activity in the magnet
osphere observed at multiple ground stations and in geosynchronous spacecra
ft particle data. The pulsations display wave properties typical of previou
sly reported giant pulsations, including reversal of phase across the latit
ude of maximum amplitude as expected for field line resonances, comparable
H (geomagnetic northward) and D (geomagnetic eastward) component amplitudes
, and strong localization in latitude to within a few degrees. The recordin
g of pulsation activity at numerous ground sites provides an opportunity to
examine the local time dependence of the frequency of giant pulsations. We
find that. throughout a long-lasting event, the frequencies of giant pulsa
tions are fixed at particular local times but decrease systematically as lo
cal time increases between midnight and noon. Geosynchronous proton fluxes
between 100 and 150 keV oscillated at the same frequency as pulsations obse
rved on the ground in the same local time sector. Nearly conjugate observat
ions indicate the observed giant pulsations have odd spatial symmetry in th
e magnetosphere. Calculations of the azimuthal wave number using three Nort
hern Hemisphere stations and one Southern Hemisphere station also suggest t
he observed giant pulsations have odd symmetry. Numerical calculations of r
esonant particle energies and the combined ground and spacecraft observatio
ns presented support the view that giant pulsations have odd spatial symmet
ry and are driven by a population of particles in drift resonance.
