Abstract: Suppose that a X is an emph{unshielded} plane continuum (i.e., X coincides with the boundary of the unbounded complementary component of X). Then there exists a emph{finest monotone} map m:XoL, where L is a locally connected continuum (i.e., m1(y) is connected for each yinL, and any monotone map varphi:XoL onto a locally connected continuum is a composition varphi=varphicircm where varphi:LoL is monotone). Such finest locally connected model L of X is easier to understand because L is locally connected (in particular it can be described by a picture) and represents the finest but still understandable decomposition of X into possibly complicated but pairwise disjoint emph{fibers} (point-preimages) of m. However, in some cases (i.e., in case X is indecomposable) L is a singleton. In this paper we provide sufficient conditions for the existence of a non-degenerate model depending on the existence of certain subcontinua of X and apply these results to the connected Julia sets of polynomials.
