It has been demonstrated that frequencies of f-modes can be used to estimate
the solar radius to a good accuracy. These frequencies have been used to study
temporal variations in the solar radius with conflicting results. The variation
in f-mode frequencies is more complicated than what is assumed in these
studies. If a careful analysis is performed then it turns out that there is no
evidence for any variation in the solar radius.
