Abstract
The solar corona is a hot, tenuous plasma permeated with the structured magnetic fields. A variety of waves is generated in the corona due to the convective upwelling motion in the photosphere. The excitation of MHD fluctuations is generated by the footpoint motion of the field lines in the photosphere. Resonant absorption of the Alfvén waves in an inhomogeneous plasma has been suggested as a means of driving current and plasma heating in the corona (Sakurai et al., 1991). We study this problem in the presence of flow.
