Overlying reconnection at t = 110. The colour scheme is as before. Reconnection occurs between the top of the (green) EFR and the (cyan) overlying field, within the displayed box. Reconnected (red and blue) field lines allow surges to flow from the corona (top of the EFR) down to the chromosphere (horizontal parts of the reconnected field lines). A map of B_z is displayed at the base of the photosphere (z = 0). The non-horizontal parts of the reconnected field lines connect down to the edges of the EFR.
