We summarize the properties of the ~320 interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) identified in the near-Earth solar wind during solar cycle 23 up to mid-2009 and note a recent increase in the ICME rate that may be associated with the new solar cycle. We also discuss how recent revisions in the ACE/SWICS solar wind composition data require the ICME identification methods described in [1] based on these data to be modified.
