This opportunity pertains to observations of the complex solar atmosphere, how it is structured and what conditions lead to solar eruptive events. Our group participates in all phases of obtaining and analyzing a rich data archive which includes imaging, spectroscopy, and magnetic field observations. Opportunities exist for participating in research on new techniques of measurement, modern statistical analysis and interpretation of existing data, as well as theoretical and computational modeling to understand the issue of connectivity, or communication, between the different layers of the solar atmosphere. This includes studying the many aspects of the statistical properties and prediction of the solar magnetic field and dynamic energy release.
