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.
