摘要：

During its southern transit Ulysses sampled the solar wind to -80.2 degrees latitude. Slow streamer belt wind was seen only equatorward of -35 degrees, but its influence extended to much higher latitudes. Reverse shocks bounding the equatorial CIR were seen as far south as -58.2 degrees. High-latitude compressional waves showed no clear correlation with that CIR. Speed and density patterns show that solar rotational modulation persisted up to 25 degrees poleward of the slow wind. Compressional structures at highest latitudes were probably driven by spatial or temporal variations within the southern coronal hole.
