Annual solar wind speed maps

ResourceID
spase://IUGONET/DisplayData/ISEE/IPS/synoptic_map

Description
Annual synoptic source surface maps in the Carrington Rotation Number versus Heliographic Latitude. The source surface was assumed to be at 2.5 solar radii. The IPS-CAT method was applied to derive these maps.
