Data-assimilative Radiation Belt Forecast

Two-day radiation belt forecast of 1 MeV electrons using the data-assimilative VERB code, real-time ARASE, ACE, and GOES data. Kp index for the previous 7 days are obtained from GFZ recent and previous month nowcast. 3-day Kp forecast is obtained from the GFZ as well.  Forecasts are conducted automatically every hour at GFZ. Version 2.0 of the code computes the nowcast and forecast fluxes from reanalysis directly using the T89 magnetic field model.
