Description
Solar cycle variations of low altitude protons are implicitly contained in the IRENE flux maps. However, IRENE users have requested an explicit solar cycle variation. Inclusion of such a model will require modifications to the IRENE data processing, flux maps, and software. We have developed simple models of the solar cycle variation based on the Selesnick Inner Zone Proton model (SIZM) and on data from the POES SEM-2 particle detectors. We discuss the ability of the models to predict the variations, as well as implications for the IRENE data base and software.
