Scientific paper

The position of the base of the solar convection zone has been measured with great precision using helioseismology to be at an average depth of 0.713R ± 0.001. We have analyzed helioseismic data from SoHO/MDI and GONG to determine whether or not there is any asphericity at that depth. We find a change in sound speed with latitude located at the base of the convection zone. This difference is most pronounced at a latitude of 60°, at the peak of the solar activity cycle. There is little change with latitude seen at low activity. Further work is required to judge the significance of the result.
