Description A cartoon depicting the different scales of coronal loop that exist in the lower corona and transition region. Many scales have been observed and it is believed there are many sub-resolution structures below the transition region threading through the chromosphere. Highly radiating coronal loops may share the same footpoint location as open flux tubes (i.e. solar wind and coronal holes) and therefore may share similar physics leading to the conjecture that coronal loops may share similar heating mechanisms as the solar wind.
