Introduction:

The ISWAT SEP Validation team is a continuation of the existing SEP Working Team that was developed under the ICCMC-LWS forum. 

Team questions: Where do we stand with SEP prediction? Using case studies of selected events, can we assess where we stand with SEP prediction? How well can the success of SEP models be compared? How do we move beyond using case studies for model/data comparisons?

Campaigns: SHINE 2018, 2019, ESWW 2018, ESWW 2022, SEPVAL 2023. (See team website for presentations and reports).

The SEP Scoreboard also falls under this team's projects. This scoreboard collects and displays real-time SEP forecasts (probability and intensity time series).

Objectives:

Organize community campaigns to evaluate how well different models/techniques can predict historical SEP events throughout the heliosphere

Establish metrics agreed upon by the community

Provide a benchmark against which future models can be assessed against

SEP Scoreboard: Add more models to the scoreboard database/display, gather feedback on the displays, serve forecasts. Begin validation of scoreboard forecasts and investigate automated real-time validation.

Action topics:

Clusters with overlapping topics:  S2
