Medium resolution CCD-spectrograph observations have been obtained that are suitable for studying long spatial wavelength 5-min oscillations. The authors find evidence that at wavelengths of order one solar radius the oscillation field is not isotropic. It is also not well described by modes of uniform excitation. The velocity power density per spherical harmonic increases with decreasing l to 1.1×103 cm2 s-2 per 3.5×10-4 Hz angular frequency bandwidth at l = 4. These results are inconsistent with the data of Fossat and Ricort (1975) as analyzed by Christensen-Dalsgaard and Gough (1982), who found a substantially constant modal amplitude at intermediate l values. It is interesting that other calculations have seen a similar dependence at small l in the growth rate of p-modes due to the κ-mechanism.
