Abstract
AbstractFourier‐Legendre decomposition (FLD) of solar Doppler imaging data is a promising method to estimate the sub‐surface solar meridional flow. FLD is sensible to low‐degree oscillation modes and thus has the potential to probe the deep meridional flow. We present a newly developed code to be used for large scale FLD analysis of helioseismic data as provided by the Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG), the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) instrument, and the upcoming Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) instrument. First results obtained with the new code are qualitatively comparable to those obtained from ring‐diagram analyis of the same time series (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
