The investigators will establish a network for continuous observation and surveillance of processes in the solar atmosphere. The main effort is to install and operate three large digital cameras to obtain full disk images of the sun in the red light emitted by hydrogen (H-alpha) in the lower chromosphere, approximately 1000-km above the surface. The data will be used to track every new emergence of magnetic flux in order to understand why some new flux forms super-active regions while other emerging flux decays quickly. Other activities include providing high quality data for solar activity monitoring and for correlative studies with other ground-bases and spacecraft observations. All flares and filament or prominence eruptions observed by the network will be classified and cataloged.

研究人员将建立一个持续观察和监视太阳大气过程的网络。主要工作是安装和操作三台大型数码相机，以获得太阳在较低色球层（距离地表约1000公里）由氢（h - α）发出的红光下的全圆盘图像。这些数据将用于跟踪每一个新出现的磁通量，以了解为什么一些新磁通量形成超级活跃区域，而其他新出现的磁通量迅速衰减。其他活动包括为太阳活动监测和与其他地面基地和航天器观测的相关研究提供高质量数据。该网络观测到的所有耀斑、细丝或日珥喷发都将被分类和编目。
