Planners for Week 49: CDS -- Kuniko Hori MDI -- Sarah Gregory EIT -- Alex Young SUMER -- Dietmar Germerott LASCO -- Ops Team UVCS -- Silvio Giordano TRACE -- Charles Kankelborg Relevant Notes -------------- CDS: MSSL Active Region Study will be CDS priority, helium cone support is planned for Tuesday and blinkers study for Sunday. UVCS: South pole magnetic reversal studies all week, JOP129 support, and synoptics and mini synoptics. LASCO: C2/C3 synoptics. EIT: 195 CME watch and synoptics. MDI: Full disk mode until Dec. 6th when MDI switches to high res mode for its continuous campaign and support of the blinkers study. TRACE: In eclipse. AOB: Please note that JOP106 has been added "after-the-fact" (TBC) to the --- list of Targets of Opportunity. This was submitted after our last SPWG and will be discussed during the Monday planning meeting.
