Scientific paper

The properties of Alfvén waves generated in the photosphere by field lines trapped in vortex sinks and propagating upwards through the transition region and corona are discussed and contrasted to those of waves generated via reconnection in transition region explosive events, or rather via untwisting reconnecting flux tubes. An outline for future simulations and theoretical advances necessary to understand the dynamics of spicules and macrospicules is described, and a detailed search for photospheric velocity patterns underlying macrospicules is suggested.
