Cane et al., JGR, 2002, proposed that a component of > 20 MeV solar proton events was related to solar "flaring", based on observations of complex type III-like solar radio bursts. This claim is important because it implies that, even for intense SEP events, some of the particles come from a source other than acceleration by coronal mass ejection-driven shocks. In support of that claim, our independent analysis (MacDowall et al., GRL, 2003) showed that complex type III bursts are indeed statistically associated with energetic SEP (proton) events, in that case, the SEP events studied for the July 2002 LWS CDAW. In this presentation, we report on analysis of the complete Wind Waves radio data set for correlated radio and SEP events. (Preliminary analysis of 1995-1999 data suggests that the correlation is not as good as that found for the LWS CDAW events.) We also describe the extent to which the characteristics of the complex type III bursts permit them to serve as proxies for SEP event occurrence and intensity, and we discuss briefly how STEREO particle and wave data may best be applied to improved understanding of the relationships between these complex events.
