Solar convection has been studied theoretically and observationally for very long time. At present, three kinds of solar surface structures are supposed as manifestations of solar convection; granulation, mesogranulation, supergranulation, in increasing order of spatial size. Among them, observations of mesogranulation, however, do not have long history, yet, since November's discovery (1981). Their basic characteristics such as lifetime, velocity field, radial size, and relation to other kinds of convection, have not been precisely determined, yet.
