Poster Title: Vector Geographic Data Visualization Abstract: Most plots of data on the Earth's surface are disseminated as raster images. Raster images do a decent job of depicting a large amount of data in an instant. As the old adage goes, "A picture is worth a thousand words." Unfortunately, raster images are mere depictions of the data and nothing more. If one wishes to offer users more views of the data, they must preconceive and produce them, often at great expense. Vector data rendering can provide users with a much richer experience. By combining common open source standards like XML (Extensible Markup Language), JavaScript and DOM (Document Object Model), users can now interact with data in ways they previously could not without employing proprietary technologies like Adobe's Flash or web-interfaced GIS. The fundamental difference is that users have access to the data itself provided in a basic geo-referencing framework. Add-on functions can be shared by authors and accessed by users to visualize data in countless ways. Imagine open source vector-based Google Maps. Back to Top |

Oral Title: SDO-EVE Rocket Flight Abstract: A prototype of the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) EUV Variability Experiment (EVE) was flown on the NASA 36.240 sounding rocket on April 14, 2008. In addition to providing, an underflight calibration for NASA's Thermosphere Ionosphere Mesosphere Energetics and Dynamics (TIMED) Solar EUV Experiment (SEE), the rocket flight provided the most accurate solar EUV irradiance spectrum during solar cycle minimum. I will present the data from the rocket flight as well as compare to previous solar cycle minimum spectra and highlight some of the possibilities of SDO-EVE. Back to Top |

Poster Title: TIM Specialties Abstract: The Total Irradiance Monitor (TIM) measures total solar irradiance (TSI), consolidating your favorite star, with all its exquisite spatial and spectral detail, into a mere one-number time series. Wasteful as that sounds, the TSI record provides the net solar input to Earth climate models, so is critical for discriminating natural and human-caused climate effects. But what can we learn about the Sun from TSI measurements? I will show highlights of the TIM measurements from NASA's Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment mission, launched in Jan. 2003, including short-term global solar variability, net radiative energy release in a solar flare, planetary transits, and observations of the current solar minimum.

Poster Title: Photoelectrons as a tool to evaluate spectral variations in the solar EUV irradiance over the last solar cycle Abstract: We report observations of 10 eV to 1 keV photoelectrons produced by 1-50 nm solar irradiance during the last solar cycle. The observations were made from the FAST satellite at ~ 3,000 km from July 2002 through April 2008. We compared and observed photoelectron spectra with model spectra calculated using solar irradiances from the FISM model which is derived from TIMED/SEE observations and the HEUVAC model in the FLIP and GLOW ionospheric models. Our results identify uncertainties in our current understanding of the temporal and spectral variations of solar irradiance in the 4-27 nm band. Back to Top |

Poster Title: Time-Distance Coronal Seismology Abstract: Recent velocity imaging observations obtained with the Coronal Multi-channel Polarimeter (CoMP) instrument reveal the existence of ubiquitous propagating Alfvén waves in the solar corona. These data present an exciting opportunity for probing the structure and magnetic topology of the coronal plasma through coronal seismology. We present the results of a time-distance analysis of the wave observations which allows the determination of the phase speed of the waves and the relative quantity of outward and inward wave flux. This analysis also provides a k-omega diagnostic diagram of coronal waves. We discuss current and future prospects for coronal seismology with these data. Back to Top |
