Caption: Figure 5.

Variations (time–distance arrow plot) of magnetic field inclination (left) and azimuth (right) along the red line segment in Figure 4. The x-axis is parallel to the solar equator and points to the right, the y-axis is parallel to the rotation axis, and the z-axis is in the radial direction. The vertical scales show the length of the slit in arcseconds. The time runs from left to right. In the left BtBz diagram, those arrows pointing to the right of the page represent vertical positive fields. Those arrows pointing to the top of the page (center of the plot) represent horizontal fields. In the right ByBx diagram, the arrows represent the magnetic field azimuth. The length of an arrow is proportional to the intensity of the Bt component. The longest BtBz arrow represents 1700 G fields, while the longest ByBx arrow equals 2500 G.
