(a) Time evolution of the magnetic energies for the long wavelength mode with kyρi = 0.05 for various resistivities. (b) The amplification of (a) in the time interval t ∈ [1.2 × 103, 2.9 × 103]. (c) Time evolution of the averaged magnetic shear s^(t)=s(x¯,t)/s(x¯,t=0)=1.5ρi1.5ρis(x,t)dx/1.5ρi1.5ρis(x,t=0)dx near the resonant surface x¯[1.5ρi,1.5ρi] .
