Plan The proposed study will analyze existing capabilities and projected trends in ground observational facilities and other research infrastructure elements in order to: assess the scientific context in which ground-based solar research will be pursued in the coming decade, including: new research opportunities, the solar connection to programs in atmospheric physics and chemistry, space environments, astronomy, and long-term climate change; existing and planned programs and instruments worldwide, space missions, and likely technological developments; A-1

This review will take into account both the primary missions as well as the research and educational roles of the various organizations; · consider whether the current approach for the management of the NSO, as a component of NSF's National Optical Astronomy Observatories, best serves the research community; if not, to suggest and evaluate alternative arrangements that could result in a healthier field; and assess whether projected capabilities will be adequate to execute the requisite program of groundbased solar research, including the ground-based component of solar physics space missions (e.g., Yohkoh, SOHO, and later, TRACE and SXI) ; suborbital investigations (e.g., Flare Genesis balloon flights, SPARTAN Shuttle flights)
