SWPC.CustomerSupport@noaa.gov http://www.swpc.noaa.gov/ NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) The Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) is part of the National Weather Service and is one of the nine National Centers for Environmental Prediction. It is the nation's official source of space weather alerts, watches and warnings. SWPC provides real-time monitoring and forecasting of solar and geophysical events which impact satellites, power grids, communications, navigation, and many other technological systems. SWPC also explores and evaluates new models and products and transitions them into operations. SWPC is also the primary warning center for the International Space Environment Service and works with many national and international partners with whom data, products, and services are shared. resourceProvider 1972 2010 Collection - Photographs of the sun in white light Solar Imagery: Photosphere: White Light: Debrecen Heliophysical Observatory Debrecen H-4010 Debrecen n/a P.O Box 30 Hungary baranyi@tigris.unideb.hu http://fenyi.solarobs.unideb.hu/deb_obs_en.html Heliophysical Observatory Debrecen The Hungarian solar physics has been re-vitalized in the Astronomical Insitute at Sv?bhegy, Budapest in 1946, by establishing the Solar Department. The department moved to the educational observatory of the Kossuth University, Debrecen which was located in the Botanical Garden of the university and a new research institute came into life under the directorship of Lor?nt Dezs? named Heliophysical Observatory of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. The original building of the observatory has been enlarged and photoheliographic observations have been started on a regular basis. One of the photoheliographs has been moved to the Gyula Observing Station built atop of the water tower of Gyula (a town about 110 miles from Debrecen), which yielded twofold advantages. On one hand, there is only a single solar telescope in the world (Mount Wilson 150 feet), whose coelostat is farther from the ground level than the Gyula telescope (43 m) which is of basic importance for the image quality. On the other hand, we have about 50 additional observing days yearly. resourceProvider 1972 2010 Collection - Photographs of the sun in white light Solar Imagery: Photosphere: White Light: ISOON Air Force Weather Agency (AFWA) 109 Washington Square, Suite 221 Offutt AFB Nebraska 68113 U.S.A. afwapa@offutt.af.mil http://www.afweather.af.mil/ Air Force Weather Agency (AFWA) The mission of Air Force Weather Agency is to maximize America's power through the exploitation of timely, accurate and relevant weather information; anytime, everywhere.
