Depletion of the outer radiation belt during low activity years

During the years of the low activity, the balance of increases and losses is violated; the whole flux of electrons is reduced. Particularly noticeable was the devastation of the outer belt during the minimum of 2009-2010 years. The slow type of decreases became most active. The transition from the fast type to the slow type of decreases was created by the prolonged periods of the low substorm activity. The slow type of intensity decreases is mostly probable caused by the losses on the magnetopause.
