Scientific paper

We present a detailed analysis of the latitudinal distribution of magnetic flux concentrations within the polar regions of the Sun. Line-of-sight magnetograms (Ca II 854.2 nm) from the declining phase of solar cycle 23 (September 2003) till the present minimum from the SOLIS/VSM instrument are utilized. The area density distribution of relatively large magnetic flux concentrations averaged over months is found to decrease significantly close to the solar poles. These results are important for numerous solar phenomena (e. g., flux transport mechanisms, polar coronal jets and plumes, solar wind). We also discuss changes in the flux distribution with the solar cycle.
