Zusammenfassung:The magnetosheath is an integral element of solar–terrestrial relations. The paper analyzes the influence of the solar wind parameters and their variability, as well as the topology of the bow shock on the characteristics of plasma turbulence in the magnetosheath on scales corresponding to the transition from the inertial region of a turbulent cascade to the dissipative one. The analysis is based on extensive statistics of measurements of the BMSW instrument with high time resolution on board the Spektr-R satellite in the magnetosheath in 2011–2018. It is shown that the variability of the solar wind plasma density and the interplanetary magnetic field magnitude, as well as the angle between the normal to the bow shock and the interplanetary magnetic field has the greatest influence on the form of the turbulent cascade directly behind the bow shock.
