Solar wind data assimilation in an operational context: Use of near-real-time data and the forecast value of an L5 monitor.

Published in Space Weather, 2023

Here, we show how near-real-time data can be used for more accurate solar wind forecast and the value that an L5 monitor can add to forecast skill.
