The solar-terrestrial environment is monitored by a wide variety of scientific sensors located throughout the world and on space platforms. This second edition of the Directory of Solar-Terrestrial Physics Monitoring Stations presents detailed information for 1163 sensors used to monitor this environment. The scientific disciplines covered are solar and interplanetary phenomena, ionospheric phenomena, flare-associated events, geomagnetic variations, aurora, cosmic rays, airglow, and miscellaneous related phenomena such as atmospheric ozone. The following summary station tables are also given: master station list, alternate name list, listing by subdiscipline, and a list of stations closed since the first directory was published in 1977. In addition, a status report summarizes the relative decrease in solar-terrestrial physics monitoring activities since 1976.
