Description

The Learmonth Solar Observatory near North-West Cape, Western Australia, has a Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) instrument which provides data for helioseismological studies of the interior of the Sun, an optical telescope to monitor sunspots and solar activity, a radio telescope with three parabolic dish antennae to monitor solar radio flux on 8 discrete frequencies in the range 245-15400 MHz, and a radio spectrograph (which sweeps through a frequency range of 25-180 MHz every 3 seconds) used for monitoring solar radio bursts.
