Censorship map for the Wh model. Pixels are gray in the positive polarity of B z and are either black or white in the negative polarity. White pixels indicate the locations of field lines for which α was censored (set to zero); black pixels indicate locations where α ≠ 0. Contours of B z are overlaid, with green and red contours located in positive and negative polarity regions, respectively. Contour levels are at ±{100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000} Mx cm −2. The pixel scale is 580 km per pixel.
