Abstract
The Space Environment Laboratory (SEL) of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) maintains instruments on board the GOES series of geostationary satellites, and aboard the NOAA/TIROS series of low‐altitude, polar‐orbiting satellites, which provide monitoring of the energetic particle radiation environment as well as monitoring the geostationary magnetic field and the solar x‐ray flux. The data are used by the SEL Space Environment Services Center (SESC) to help provide real‐time monitoring and forecasting of the state of the near earth environment and its disturbances, and to maintain a source of reliable information to research and operational activities of a variety of users.The data, data sources, and products relevant to the characterization of the near‐earth radiation environment and its response to solar cosmic ray events are briefly described, as are the laboratory’s archives and uses of these data.
