Description

Australia has made major contributions to research in solar physics for several decades. Solar images are a major kind of records of solar activities. The SWS has monitored and archived solar activity images from Culgoora and Learmonth for more than two decades. They include H-Alpha (2003-2014) and White Light(2004-2013) images from Culgoora, and H-Alpha(2004-2009), GONG H-Alpha(since 2013), GONG White Light(since 2010)and GONG Magnetogram(since 2010) images from Learmonth. Learmonth solar image data is available since 31/05/2004.
