Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ionosphere
  • Solar wind
  • Magnetosphere

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Magnetosphere, Geophysics, Interplanetary magnetic field, Solar wind and Ionosphere. His Magnetosphere research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Geomagnetic storm and Computational physics. His Computational physics study incorporates themes from Magnetic reconnection and Orbit.

As a part of the same scientific family, N. C. Maynard mostly works in the field of Geophysics, focusing on Convection and, on occasion, Spatial distribution. He combines subjects such as Space weather, Magnetohydrodynamics and Earth's magnetic field with his study of Interplanetary magnetic field. His Ionosphere study which covers Atmospheric sciences that intersects with Defense Meteorological Satellite Program.

His most cited work include:

  • Predicting interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) propagation delay times using the minimum variance technique (233 citations)
  • Hill model of transpolar potential saturation: Comparisons with MHD simulations (228 citations)
  • Auroral vector electric field and particle comparisons, 2, Electrodynamics of an arc (175 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geophysics, Magnetosphere, Interplanetary magnetic field, Ionosphere and Solar wind. His study in Geophysics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Magnetopause, Magnetosheath, Convection, Plasma sheet and Field line. His Magnetosphere research incorporates themes from Computational physics, Northern Hemisphere and Magnetic reconnection.

His work deals with themes such as Earth's magnetic field and Meteorology, which intersect with Interplanetary magnetic field. His work carried out in the field of Ionosphere brings together such families of science as Rocket, Atmospheric sciences, Plasmasphere and Electrojet. His studies deal with areas such as Space weather and Noon as well as Solar wind.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geophysics (67.86%)
  • Magnetosphere (39.29%)
  • Interplanetary magnetic field (36.90%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2013)?

  • Geophysics (67.86%)
  • Magnetosphere (39.29%)
  • Solar wind (28.57%)

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

N. C. Maynard mostly deals with Geophysics, Magnetosphere, Solar wind, Magnetohydrodynamics and Magnetopause. N. C. Maynard undertakes multidisciplinary studies into Geophysics and Polar in his work. While the research belongs to areas of Magnetosphere, N. C. Maynard spends his time largely on the problem of Ionosphere, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Satellite observation.

The various areas that he examines in his Solar wind study include Computational physics and Plasma sheet. His Magnetohydrodynamics research incorporates elements of Field line, Northern Hemisphere and Interplanetary magnetic field. His research in Interplanetary magnetic field intersects with topics in Turbulence, Space weather and Mesoscale meteorology.

Between 2003 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • Global Geometry of Magnetospheric Currents Inferred From MHD Simulations (60 citations)
  • Pc 1 waves and associated unstable distributions of magnetospheric protons observed during a solar wind pressure pulse (53 citations)
  • MHD Simulation of Magnetospheric Transport at the Mesoscale (53 citations)

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

  • Ionosphere
  • Solar wind
  • Optics

His primary areas of study are Magnetosphere, Interplanetary magnetic field, Magnetohydrodynamics, Geophysics and Plasma sheet. His work on Magnetopause as part of his general Magnetosphere study is frequently connected to Population, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Magnetopause research includes elements of Northern Hemisphere and Ionosphere.

N. C. Maynard integrates many fields, such as Population and engineering, in his works. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Solar wind and Geophysics. His Space weather research integrates issues from Turbulence, Mechanics and Mesoscale meteorology.
