The Rosse Solar-Terrestrial Observatory
Welcome to the Rosse Solar-Terrestrial Observatory (RSTO), operated by the Solar and Space Weather Group at Trinity College Dublin. The observatory is dedicated to studying solar activity and its effects on Earth and it is located in the radio quiet environment ofBirr Castle Demesne, Co. Offaly, Ireland (53° 05' 38.9'' N, 7° 55' 12.7'' W).
We operate a number of instruments at the observatory, including e-Callisto solar radio burst monitors developed by ETH Zurich, a Sudden Ionospheric Monitor developed by Stanford University, and seismic and geomagnetic instruments provided by the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (DIAS). The Irish LOFAR Consortium are building a LOFAR radio telescope here in 2016/2017.
 Please visit the RSTO data archives to
download FITS data files or quicklook PNGs, and to view hourly-updated
dynamic spectra. More information on solar activity is available at
TCD's SolarMonitor.org.
