Abstract:
We analyzed eight active regions with more than 600 flare kernels and ribbons, and relevant time sequence Hβ chromospheric Dopplergrams. These data showed that during several hours prior to the flares, the velocity field evolves so that the sites of the flare kernels and ribbons become close to the inversion line of the velocity field. This result holds regardless of whether or not the flare sites are wholly located in blue-shifted areas, or are far from the the inversion line of the line-of-sight velocity field, or are partly within red-shifted areas.
