Recently the LOWL Group has made available 2-year averages of frequency splitting data obtained mainly for low values of the degree . Charbonneau et al. (1997) find a nearly flat rotational curve in the deep radiative core from these data using a Genetic Forward Modeling method. Subsequently, they test the assumption of latitude independence for r < 0.5 by performing a 1.5-D inversion, and find a rotation rate which is 25% greater at the pole than at the equator for 0.1 < r < 0.2.
