<p><span>Magnetospheric chorus is known to play a significant role in the acceleration and loss of radiation belt electrons. Interactions of chorus waves with radiation belt particles are commonly evaluated using quasi-linear diffusion codes that rely on statistical models, which might not accurately provide the instantaneous global wave distribution from limited in-situ wave measurements. Thus, a novel technique capable of inferring wave amplitudes from POES particle measurements, with an extensive coverage of L-shell and magnetic local time, has been established to obtain event-specific, global dynamic evolutions of chorus waves. This study, using 5 years of POES electron data, further improves the technique, and enables us to subsequently infer the chorus wave amplitudes for all useful data points (removing the electrons which were in the drift loss cone) and to construct the global distribution of lower-band chorus wave intensity. The results obtained from the improved technique reproduce Van Allen Probes in-situ observations of chorus waves reasonably well and reconstruct the major features of the global distribution of chorus waves. We demonstrate that such a data-based, dynamic model can provide near-real-time estimates of chorus wave intensity on a global scale for any time period when POES data are available, which cannot be obtained from in-situ wave measurements by equatorial satellites alone, but is crucial for quantifying the  dynamics of the radiation belt electrons.</span></p>

Abstract. This review summarizes selected recent results obtained during investigation of whistler-mode chorus emissions in the Earth's magnetosphere. Special attention is paid to results published during the last five years, with a focus on the results of the CLUSTER project. The nonlinear nature of chorus emissions is demonstrated using both theoretical results and measurements. Selected areas of research on whistler-mode chorus are covered and the paper especially reports new results on substructure and amplitudes of chorus wave packets, on new observations of frequency differences of chorus wave packets at different points in space and on their possible interpretations, on results concerning determination of position and size of the source region of chorus, on recent observational and theoretical results which lead to improved description of propagation of chorus from its source, and, finally, on comparison of chorus measurements with corresponding values deduced from nonlinear theory and simulations.
