The white light solar corona--an atlas of k-coronameter synoptic charts August 1980 - September 1981. Technical note
A synoptic observing program was undertaken at the Mauna Loa Solar Observatory, a site operated by the High Altitude Observatory to study the solar corona using the Mark III K-Coronameter. Daily pB images were used to extract three pB ( ) azimuthal scans located at heights of 1.3, 1.7, and 2.1 Rq. Four final data products are given in this atlas: (1) interpolated pB contour plots for h = 1.3 and 1.7 Rq for each Carrington rotation; (2) shaded pB charts for each Carrington rotation; (3) standard zonal pB average values for each day; and (4) autocorrelation estimates of pB variation for equatorial and high latitude structure and an autocorrelation coefficient for an amplitude-independent, first moment of the pB distribution.
