    AnnotationRecent results of measurement, data analysis, theory, and simulations confirm that whistler mode waves play
    an important role in the dynamical behavior of the Earth's magnetosphere. This especially concerns the outer Van Allen
    radiation belts. In spite of these new advances, many questions related to the origin and effects of these waves still
    remain open.
    We analyze whistler-mode waves using a database of survey measurements of the Waves instruments of the
    Electric and Magnetic Field Instrument Suite and Integrated Science (EMFISIS) onboard the Van Allen Probes. We use
    multicomponent data to estimate wave polarization and propagation parameters and we especially pay attention to the
    variability of wave amplitudes. Usual approach is to calculate average or median values as a function of position or
    geomagnetic activity. These values then serve as inputs for modeling. We show the importance of using a more
    elaborated statistical description.
