Scientific paper

A model was develped for the mass, energy, and magnetic field transport into the corona. The focus is on the flow below the photosphere which allows the energy to pass into, and be dissipated within, the solar atmosphere. The high flow velocities observed in spicules are explained. A treatment following the work of Bailyn et al. (1985) is examined. It was concluded that within the framework of the model, energy may dissipate at a temperature comparable to the temperature where the waves originated, allowing for an equipartition solution of atmospheric flow, departing the sun at velocities approaching the maximum Alfven speed.
