The report presents two papers on observational evidence for large and small scale motions in the solar atmosphere.
This book contains the proceedings of the Summerschool and Workshop Motions in the Solar Atmosphere held from September 1st to September 12th, 1997, at the Solar Observatory Kanzelh6he, which belongs to the Astronomical Institute of the University of Graz, Austria. This type of conference has proved to be very successful in bringing together experts from specialized topics in solar physics and young scientists and students from different countries. Moreover, the summerschool was accompanied by a workshop which offered young scientists the opportunity to present their new results to a general audience. In total the summerschool and the workshop were attended by 50 par ticipants from 10 different countries. The topic selected was quite general, covering the whole solar atmo sphere and its dynamic processes: from dynamo actions and large and small scale motions in the photosphere through the complex dynamics of the chro mosphere to the corona. Also the possible influences of variations in solar output parameters to the Earth's climate were addressed. The main lec tures were given by 7 lecturers. Furthermore, there were 20 contributions to the workshop which were presented in oral form. The selection of the Kanzelh6he Solar Observatory located in Central Europe, Austria, also permitted colleagues from the former eastern coun tries to attend the meeting. At the Kanzelh6he Observatory new instru ments had been recently installed so that the meeting provided a further stimulus for the local people working there.

A comprehensive and authoritative text on the formation and evolution of planetary atmospheres, for graduate-level students and researchers.
In 2010, NASA and the National Science Foundation asked the National Research Council to assemble a committee of experts to develop an integrated national strategy that would guide agency investments in solar and space physics for the years 2013-2022. That strategy, the result of nearly 2 years of effort by the survey committee, which worked with more than 100 scientists and engineers on eight supporting study panels, is presented in the 2013 publication, Solar and Space Physics: A Science for a Technological Society. This booklet, designed to be accessible to a broader audience of policymakers and the interested public, summarizes the content of that report.
There are many theories of the large-scale circulation of the sun. Fundamental to many of these is a meridional cell which transports momentum between the pole and equator. Observational verification has devolved most often upon the analysis of the latitudinal drifts of sunspots. A comprehensive analysis of sunspot drifts shows some peculiar results. Two conclusions can be drawn from these results. First, sunspot data cannot be used to verify the existence of a mean meridional circulation on the sun. Second, the residual meridional drifts (averaged over time and longitude) are very much smaller than their day-to-day counterparts, lending support to the idea that the latter are the more fundamental to the large-scale solar circulation.
