The comparison between the observed and theoretical p-mode oscillation frequencies of many orders and degrees allows a detailed determination of the internal solar structure (Christensen-Dalsgaard et al. 1996). The most recent analysis shows that one source of error in the modern description of the Sun is located in the convective layers close to the surface, in the superadiabatic region (Gabriel 1994).
