Source codes for the wave tracking and density diagnostic are available at Zenodo ( 31). The HMI synoptic photospheric magnetogram and results of our PFSS model are available in hierarchical data format at. The AIA data are available at the Joint Science Operations Center (JSOC) we used the AIA 193 Å image taken at 19:25:55 UT on 14 October 2016. Data and materials availability: The CoMP data can be obtained at we used the files that begin with 20161014. Competing interests: The authors declare no competing interests. All authors have discussed the results and commented on the manuscript. advised on the data analysis and contributed to the interpretation of the observations. The gas pressure in the convection zone dominates the magnetic field pressure. The magnetic field in the corona is anchored in the convection zone. This layer of the Sun is called the convection zone.

developed the software for the calculation of POS magnetic field from the PFSS model. How is the Solar Corona Heated What we know is that the outer layer of the Sun is very turbulent, like a pot of boiling water. developed the wave-tracking method, with contributions from R.M. contributed to the magnetic field determination. C.B improved the CoMP data-processing pipeline and led the first stage of data analysis. analyzed the data and generated the figures and movies under H.T.’s guidance.
