Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Optics
  • Ionosphere
  • Magnetosphere

His primary areas of study are Geophysics, Magnetosphere, Ionosphere, Geomagnetic storm and Interplanetary magnetic field. The concepts of his Geophysics study are interwoven with issues in Convection, Ring current, Plasma sheet, Field line and Substorm. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Magnetosphere, Ionospheric dynamo region is strongly linked to Atmospheric electricity.

In his work, Magnetic cloud is strongly intertwined with Atmospheric sciences, which is a subfield of Ionosphere. His research in Geomagnetic storm intersects with topics in Longitude and Meteorology. As a member of one scientific family, Frederick J. Rich mostly works in the field of Interplanetary magnetic field, focusing on Latitude and, on occasion, South Atlantic Anomaly.

His most cited work include:

  • Quantitative simulation of a magnetospheric substorm 1. Model logic and overview (389 citations)
  • Large-scale convection patterns observed by DMSP (328 citations)
  • Quantitative simulation of a magnetospheric substorm 2. Comparison with observations (188 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Frederick J. Rich focuses on Geophysics, Ionosphere, Magnetosphere, Convection and Atmospheric sciences. He combines subjects such as Geomagnetic storm, Interplanetary magnetic field, Solar wind, Electron precipitation and Plasma sheet with his study of Geophysics. His Ionosphere research incorporates themes from Meteorology and Latitude.

Frederick J. Rich has researched Magnetosphere in several fields, including Atmospheric electricity and Electrojet. His research investigates the connection between Convection and topics such as Northern Hemisphere that intersect with problems in Southern Hemisphere. Frederick J. Rich usually deals with Atmospheric sciences and limits it to topics linked to Defense Meteorological Satellite Program and Solstice.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geophysics (62.20%)
  • Ionosphere (55.12%)
  • Magnetosphere (26.77%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2018)?

  • Geophysics (62.20%)
  • Interplanetary magnetic field (27.56%)
  • Atmospheric sciences (28.35%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Geophysics, Interplanetary magnetic field, Atmospheric sciences, Defense Meteorological Satellite Program and Earth's magnetic field are his primary areas of study. A large part of his Geophysics studies is devoted to Ionosphere. Interplanetary magnetic field is a primary field of his research addressed under Solar wind.

His biological study deals with issues like Equinox, which deal with fields such as Coronal hole, Magnetic declination and Wavenumber. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Latitude and Geodesy. His Earth's magnetic field research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Remote sensing, Vector field and External field.

Between 2006 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Seasonal, Kp, solar wind, and solar flux variations in long-term single-pass satellite estimates of electron and ion auroral hemispheric power (71 citations)
  • Seasonal, Kp, solar wind, and solar flux variations in long-term single-pass satellite estimates of electron and ion auroral hemispheric power (71 citations)
  • Solar wind structure sources and periodicities of auroral electron power over three solar cycles (60 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Optics
  • Solar wind
  • Ionosphere

Frederick J. Rich mostly deals with Solar wind, Earth's magnetic field, Atmospheric sciences, Defense Meteorological Satellite Program and Interplanetary magnetic field. His study brings together the fields of Wind speed and Solar wind. His Defense Meteorological Satellite Program study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Electron precipitation, Magnetic dip and Solstice.

He has included themes like Ionosphere, Geophysics, Magnetosphere and Latitude in his Interplanetary magnetic field study. His Solar minimum research includes elements of Coronal hole, Coronal mass ejection, Solar irradiance and Equinox. His Solar cycle study is mostly concerned with Solar maximum and Solar cycle 22.
