A theory has been developed for the acceleration of the solar wind, which couples the acceleration to the behavior of the open magnetic flux of the Sun. The open flux is transported in the corona by various diffusive processes, which in turn can impart energy into and accelerate the solar wind. The theory thus provides an opportunity to relate the final speed of the solar wind to the processes governing the behavior of the open flux, or equivalently, it provides the basis for predicting the solar wind flow from observed solar parameters. Comparison of the results of this approach with observations, and the relationship of this theory with other methods to predict the solar wind will be considered.
