High Altitude Observatory


The High Altitude Observatory studies the connections between the Sun and the Earth's atmosphere and physical environment, the physical processes which produce variable solar output, and the influence of these variations on the dynamics, chemistry and electrodynamics of Earth's middle and upper atmosphere and near space environment. HAO's program includes numerical simulation of convection, radiation transport, and large-scale dynamics in both the solar and terrestrial atmospheres, plus observational programs to measure the Sun's output of magnetized plasma and radiation over the 11 year sunspot cycle of the Sun.
