Heliographic spatial distribution of the anemone active regions and associated flaring events during 2011–2014. Left panel a: location of the anemone regions, with the relative size of the marker in proportion to the estimated distance of the active region from the coronal hole center. Right panel b: anemone regions related with the flare events. The color of the marker indicates the type of the flare as eruptive (red) or confined (blue), while the marker size gives the magnitude of the flare in Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES ) soft x-ray (SXR) flux.
