Energy transport through the solar atmosphereThe energy transport through the solar atmosphere and the source of energy which heats the chromosphere and the solar corona are studied. Wave propagation in the solar atmosphere and in the heating of the solar atmosphere is discussed as a source and transport medium. The source of the waves is thought to be the photospheric short period oscillations. Simultaneous observations from the photosphere to the corona at the solar disk center are reported. Emphasis is on the possible association of aperiodic brightenings high in the atmosphere with specific events in the photosphere.
