The presence of a magnetic field both deep within the Sun and in its atmosphere raises the question of the field's influence on the p- and g-modes of oscillation and the implications for helioseismology. Recently, Woodard and Noyes have reported a slight but systematic decrease in frequencies of low-degree p-modes from 1980 to 1984. The authors argue that the frequencies of both p- and g-modes are modified by a magnetic field. In particular, they attribute the decrease in p-mode frequencies to a magnetic field within the solar interior evolving over the solar cycle. Field strengths at the base of the convection zone of at least 5×105G are required.
