Abstract
Large-scale solar activity is considered as a manifestation of 3 types of magnetic field activity which is demonstrated in the 22-year cycle (a) of small-scale flux emergence (polar faculae at latitudes > 40°), (b) of somewhat larger scale flux emergence (sunspots at latitudes < 40°), and (c) of the global magnetic neutral lines at all latitudes. The migration (poleward or equatorward) of the place of birth and/or of the phenomena themselves of these three types of manifestation of magnetic field is discussed. The poleward migration of the global field is explained in a phenomenological way.
