Links to Important Websites
The URL listings on this page are expected to change frequently during the next several months. The primary reason for this, is the change in name of the chief civilian agency responsible for space weather predictions for the United States.
On October 01, 2007, the Space Environment Center's (SEC.) name was changed to the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC). Some URLs previously active for the SEC will continue to work during the near future. Parallel URLs are being introduced. File formats and page content on the Agency's webpages will remain the same for the near future.
Readers are requested to check this page frequently for information on updated URLs for the Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC), The National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC) and other agencies operating under the NOAA umbrella.
URLs for services provided by IPS Radio and Space Services are also undergoing extensive changes. IPS web pages and web page content are in a state of flux (early 2008).
