SDO/AIA science plan: prioritization and implementation: Five Objectives in 10 steps [session no.] HMI/AIA science teams meeting; Monterey; Feb I: C7: Connections to Geospace Chairs: Stephen Fuselier, Zoran Mikic Status: Draft, Version 1

[session no.] HMI/AIA science teams meeting; Monterey; Feb Guidelines to group leads Assess the task definitions in appendix A (‘AIA Science Plan’) in the 2004 Concept Study Report (CSR). In particular: Science/task descriptions in Ch. A1.1 Summaries in Table A2 Identify required changes from, and additions to, the ‘AIA Science Plan’ Evaluate the status of that plan, and formulate changes, if needed. You may add as many pages to this document as you need, but: Add pages under the same headings: please, do not change the roman numerals in the page titles, please add ‘a, b, c, d, …’ Resources: AIA home: AIA CSR summary: CSR: Proposal:
