The 11-yr torsional oscillations of the sun may represent deep-seated natural oscillations of the surface layers, excited by convection. Estimates are obtained for the torsional-wave frequency and amplitude. Torsional modulation of the magnetic-field generation process might account for the magnetic effects that parallel the solar cycle.
