Magnetic Flux Transport at the Solar Surface
J. Jiang, D. H. Hathaway, R. H. Cameron +3
After emerging to the solar surface, the Sun's magnetic field displays a complex and intricate evolution. The evolution of the surface field is important for several reasons. One i…
Effects of Meridional Flow Variations on Solar Cycles 23 and 24
Lisa Upton, David H. Hathaway
The faster meridional flow that preceded the solar cycle 23/24 minimum is thought to have led to weaker polar field strengths, producing the extended solar minimum and the unusuall…
The Solar Meridional Circulation and Sunspot Cycle Variability
David H. Hathaway, Lisa Upton
We have measured the meridional motions of the magnetic elements in the Sun's surface layers since 1996 and find systematic and substantial variations. In general the meridional fl…
Giant Convection Cells Found on the Sun
David H. Hathaway, Lisa Upton, Owen Colegrove
Heat is transported through the outermost 30% of the Sun's interior by overturning convective motions. These motions are evident at the Sun's surface in the form of two characteris…
