The fundamental mode (f-mode) which is essentially a surface mode can be expected to provide a diagnostic of flows and magnetic fields etc. present in the surface regions (Ghosh, Chitre & Antia 1995; Rosenthal & Christensen-Dalsgaard 1995). It turns out that the observed f-mode frequencies can also provide an accurate measure of solar radius (Antia 1997; Schou et al. 1997).
