Tóm tắt

It is the objective of the present study to establish an absolute scale for flows in the solar transition region in observations obtained with the UVSP/SMM. By use of the polar limbs as reference one finds that the downflows range between 3 and 10 km s−1. The brighter regions show the largest downward flows.
