Observations of the solar equatorial electron scattered coronal radiance made during the Skylab mission show characteristics which dramatically differ with time. The results may be interpreted as indicating a general simplification of the coronal magnetic field, and, in comparison with harmonic analysis of observed solar surface magnetic fields, as indicating a rapid response of outer coronal structures to abrupt changes in the global solar surface field structure.
