الوصف: We present STEREO observations within 1500 proton gyroradii of 12 quasiperpendicular interplanetary shocks, with long-duration burst mode electric �field acquisition by S/WAVES enabling observation of the evolution of waves throughout the entire ramp of interplanetary shocks. The shocks are low Mach number (Mf ~1-5), with beta (��) ~0.2-1.8. High variability in frequency, amplitude, and wave mode is observed upstream, downstream, and in shock ramps. Observations in every region include ion acoustic-like waves, electron cyclotron drift instability driven waves, electrostatic solitary waves, and high frequency whistler mode waves. We also show for the fi�rst time the existence of electrostatic waves with frequencies in the ion acoustic range which are frequency dispersed in time and the �first observations of electron cyclotron drift instability (ECDI) driven waves at interplanetary shocks. The waves are bursty, large amplitude (~5 to > 200 mV/m), and seen in all three regions. All wave modes are more commonly observed downstream than upstream.
