The Waves in the Lower Solar Atmosphere (WaLSA) team is an international consortium that is focused on investigating wave activity in the Sun's lower atmosphere. The purpose of the group is to understand how magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves generated within the Sun's interior and lower atmosphere affect the dynamics and heating of its outer layers.[1]
