  2. TÁMOP 4.2.2.C FÖLD-RENDSZER PROJEKT
    (2013-2014, DHO budget: 1MFt)
    Hungarian "Earth System Science" project. Contribution to the project with the revision GPR (Greenwich Photoheliographic Results) and with the presentation of the Hungarian Historical Solar Observations (HHSD).
  3. ESA-PECS
    (Production and cross-calibration of space-borne sunspot data, No. C98081, 2009-2012,
    120000 Euro + 18000 Euro equipment)
    PI: A. Ludmány, Co-I: T. Baranyi, L. Győri
  4. The aim of the proposal was to extend the time - coverage of the SOHO/MDI space - borne sunspot database for the post - SOHO era by continuing the work on the HMI images of the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and by ensuring homogeneity between the two materials and also with ground-based datasets.

  5. National Development Agency (Nemzeti Fejlesztési Ügynökség) under grant agreement n° BONUS_HU_08-BONUS_HU_08/2009-003 (2010-2011, 6583eFt) support for MTA KTM CSKI Heliophysical Observatory participation of the SOTERIA FP7 project.
    PI: A. Ludmány, Co-I: T. Baranyi

  6. SOTERIA
    (SOlar-TERrestrial Investigations and Archives)
    FP7-Space-Cooperation, No. 218816, 2008-2011, (DHO grant: 206000 Euro)
    Coordinator: G. Lapenta, PI at DHO: A. Ludmány (Lead of WP2), Co-I: T. Baranyi, L. Győri
  7. SOTERIA aimed at creating a wide synergy in the fields of solar-space and geo-physics among different centers in a number of European countries to achieve a higher level of quality and accessibility for the observational data and for the models. Our goal was to help creating the basis for a deeper understanding of solar and space processes having terrestrial impact. The Debrecen Observatory was the lead of Work Package 2 (Photosphere)
