Chromospheric inferences rely on the interpretation of spectral lines that are formed under Non-Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium (NLTE) conditions. In the presence of oscillations, changes in the opacity impact the response height of the…

We extend the grid of NLTE models presented in Paper II to explore variations in abundance pattern in two ways: 1) The adoption of the Asplund et al. (2009) (GASS10) abundances, 2) For stars of metallicity, [M/H], of -0.5, the adoption of a…
