Scientific paper

The UVCS instrument aboard the SOHO spacecraft measures UV spectrum in the solar corona. The capability of observing Lyman lines of atomic hydrogen as well as lines from various elements, some with a range of ionization states, makes it possible to determine the absolute elemental abundances in both low and high FIP (First Ionization Potential) elements. We review UVCS observations of absolute abundances in various structures of the solar corona. These include streamers across its structure, at different latitudes and heights, as well as variations along the heliocentric heights above active regions.
