Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Geophysics
  • Astronomy

Geophysics, Geodesy, Earth's magnetic field, Spherical harmonics and Geomagnetic secular variation are his primary areas of study. Nils Olsen works on Geophysics which deals in particular with Secular variation. Nils Olsen focuses mostly in the field of Secular variation, narrowing it down to topics relating to International Geomagnetic Reference Field and, in certain cases, Aeronomy and Epoch.

The Geodesy study combines topics in areas such as Time derivative, Observatory, Satellite, Ionosphere and Mantle. His Earth's magnetic field research includes themes of Planetary science, Swarm behaviour, Planet and Magnetic anomaly. His Spherical harmonics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Parametrization, Magnetometer and Scalar.

His most cited work include:

  • International Geomagnetic Reference Field: the eleventh generation (889 citations)
  • International Geomagnetic Reference Field: the 12th generation (717 citations)
  • Extending comprehensive models of the Earth's magnetic field with Ørsted and CHAMP data (345 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Geophysics, Earth's magnetic field, Geodesy, Swarm behaviour and Satellite. Nils Olsen has researched Geophysics in several fields, including Geomagnetic secular variation, Magnetosphere and Lithosphere. The concepts of his Earth's magnetic field study are interwoven with issues in Dipole model of the Earth's magnetic field, Magnetometer and QUIET.

His Geodesy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Magnetic anomaly, Ring current, Observatory, Secular variation and Spherical harmonics. Nils Olsen works mostly in the field of Secular variation, limiting it down to concerns involving International Geomagnetic Reference Field and, occasionally, Aeronomy. His research in Swarm behaviour intersects with topics in External field, Cluster, Constellation, Satellite constellation and Meteorology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geophysics (52.88%)
  • Earth's magnetic field (39.93%)
  • Geodesy (29.50%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Geophysics (52.88%)
  • Swarm behaviour (25.90%)
  • Earth's magnetic field (39.93%)

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

Nils Olsen spends much of his time researching Geophysics, Swarm behaviour, Earth's magnetic field, Satellite and Ionosphere. He is interested in Mantle, which is a field of Geophysics. His research integrates issues of Geodesy, Inversion, Meteorology, Satellite constellation and Space in his study of Swarm behaviour.

His studies deal with areas such as Secular variation and Spherical harmonics as well as Geodesy. He interconnects QUIET, Earth, Planetary science and Latitude in the investigation of issues within Earth's magnetic field. His studies deal with areas such as Magnetometer and Remote sensing as well as Satellite.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Recent geomagnetic secular variation from Swarm and ground observatories as estimated in the CHAOS-6 geomagnetic field model (157 citations)
  • Extracting Ocean-Generated Tidal Magnetic Signals from Swarm Data Through Satellite Gradiometry (33 citations)
  • Satellite tidal magnetic signals constrain oceanic lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary. (32 citations)

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

  • Statistics
  • Geophysics
  • Astronomy

His primary scientific interests are in Earth's magnetic field, Geophysics, Swarm behaviour, Satellite and Geodesy. Nils Olsen is involved in the study of Geophysics that focuses on Ionosphere in particular. His Swarm behaviour study incorporates themes from Constellation, Satellite constellation and Inversion.

His study focuses on the intersection of Satellite and fields such as Magnetometer with connections in the field of Calibration and Remote sensing. His Geodesy research includes elements of Secular variation and Spherical harmonics. Nils Olsen studied Secular variation and Epoch that intersect with Magnetic declination, Aeronomy and International Geomagnetic Reference Field.
