Spectrograms of Mg I-absorptions lines have been registrated at different positions of the damping wings. The corresponding heights within the atmosphere have been approximated by the Eddington-Barbier approximation. We calculated the coherence between the intensity fluctuations in the continuum and those of the higher layers. We found a rather flat gradient up to a height of 100 km and above this a steep decrease of coherence. From this result we can conclude that above a height of 100 km any fluctuations of intensity are not due to ordinary convective processes. However, up to a height of 400 km we found a coherence between the velocity of granulation and its intensity fluctuations.
