Popis: The paper proposes a model for predicting the integral daily fluxes (fluences) of relativistic electrons (RE) (E > 2 MeV) of the Earth's outer radiation belt in a geostationary orbit using images of the Sun in the ultraviolet range. The results show that the accuracy of the forecast of the RE fluxes three or four days ahead increases significantly when adding the predicted values of solar wind speed at the Earth’s orbit, obtained by processing images of the Sun in the UV range from AIA instrument, SDO Observatory, to the input parameters of the forecasting model.
