| Abstract: |
In this paper, we have developed an empirical model of the global distribution of plasma parameters on the coronal source surface (at 2.5 solar radii (Rs) in our study) by analyzing observations from Ulysses and OMNI data. We use this model to construct the global map of source surface plasma for four typical Carrington Rotations (CRs) during different phases of solar activity, and analyze the basic characteristics of the distribution. A simple validation of the model is made by comparing the density and velocity distribution with the pB-inversed density and Wang-Sheeley-Arge (WSA) model velocity. The preliminary results show that our model gives reasonable large scale distribution of source surface plasma parameters at different phases of solar activity. |
