Daily measurements of polarization brightness (pB)in the lower corona have been made with the High Altitude Observatory Mark III Coronameter since 1980. Radial scans of pB between 1.1 and 2.2 Rsun (with 0.01 Rsun resolution and obtained every 1 degree of polar angle) are usually well-fit with a power law function. Maps of the fit parameters over latitude and longitude for each solar rotation show the variations in the large-scale structure of the solar corona between 1985 and 1990. Radial profiles of pB from the Solar Maximum Mission data, extending from about 1.5 to 5 Rsun, have recently been combined with the Mark III measurements to obtain pB profiles from 1.1 to 4 Rsun.
