Abstract

Using measurements of 629.73 Å from the Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer (CDS) on board SOHO we report on blinker activity in off-limb regions above the Northern pole of the Sun. The blinkers are found to be occurring above a region showing strong dynamic activity, with evidence for evacuation of plasma. The presence of blinkers is discussed in terms of the heating of spicular material.
