 In this paper we took our travel-time measurements from earlier work and tried to infer the deep, large-scale flows inside the Sun. To get some sense of our results using GONG ground-based data, we compared our results to those obtained from space-based data in {[2013ApJ...774L..29Z]}.

-This paper showed travel-time measurements of about 650 days of GONG data. Signatures of meridional flow in the deep convection zone are present, and preliminary evidence of a change of sign, indicating an equatorward flow for some large travel distances as seen in other recent work, is found. This is the first time this has been seen in GONG data. We only find reasonable results after correcting for center-to-limb systematics as in the Zhao et al. (2012) work, whereby we subtract off east-west measurements from the north-south ones (see figure on right).

-While that paper used space-based SDO/HMI observations, we use ground-based GONG data. This suggests that some systematics are not instrument specific, but have real solar origins. The work of Baldner and Schou (2012) explores one possible source of systematic errors due to granulation flows.
