The authors study Alfvén wave propagation in a dissipative non-uniform magnetized plasma that models the solar atmosphere. They evaluate the importance of particular dissipative mechanism (viscosity, electrical resistivity) in different locations within the solar atmosphere, and discuss the results in relation to the coronal heating.
