| Abstract: |
Many efforts have been made to develop general dynamical models of the Van Allen radiation belts based on data alone. Early linear prediction filter studies focused on the response of daily-averaged relativistic electrons at geostationary altitudes Nagai 1988, Baker et al. 1990). Vassiliadis et al (2005) extended this technique spatially by incorporating SAMPEX electron flux data into linear prediction filters for a broad range of L-shells from 1.1 to 10.0 RE. Nonlinear state space models (Rigler & Baker 2008) have provided useful initial results on the timescales involved in modeling the impulse-response of the radiation belts. Here, we show how NARMAX models, in conjunction with nonlinear time-delay FIR neural networks (Volterra networks) hold great promise for the development of accurate and fully data-derived space weather specification and forecast tools. |
