Helioseismology

Scientific paper

The advent of GONG+ and the selection of the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) for the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) together promise a high-resoluton future for helioseismology in probing the internal dynamics and structure of the sun. We address some of the dynamical issues in the upper reaches of the solar convection zone that inspire these observational efforts which seek to understand the complex couplings between the highly turbulent convection and the intense magnetism exhibited by the sun. We examine findings to date about the evolving flows, called Solar Subsurface Weather (SSW), and their interaction with magnetism deduced from various local helioseismic approaches. We discuss the substantial efforts that appear to be required to make these procedures capable of subsurface flows with GONG+ and HMI over a wide range of depths for much of the visible solar disk. We shall also review some recent evidence for variability with advancing solar cycle both within the body of the convection zone and within its upper shear layer.
