The radiation environment is predicted for a circular orbit at a height of 600 km and an inclination to the equatorial plane of 82 deg for the 1987 epoch with allowance for solar activity effects. The analysis is based on a numerical model for the distribution of electron and proton fluxes in near-earth space. Data are presented on doses for various types of spacecraft protective coatings. Peak values of particle fluxes and corresponding radiation doses at the center of the Brazilian anomaly are shown to greatly exceed the average daily values for electrons and high-energy protons.
