Gary Zank is a prominent theorist in the physics of space plasmas and an exceptional leader, administrator, and educator. He has leveraged these qualities to support the heliophysics science community and advance the field of space plasma physics. Ga...

Dr. Lisa Tauxe is a preeminent contributor to understanding long-term intensity variations of Earth’s magnetic field. Geomagnetic variations are critical to constraining our understanding of the workings of the deep Earth dynamo that drives the fiel...

Umran Inan has achieved exceptional success and impact in all facets of his career: scientific research, mentoring and teaching, and leadership. Each on its own is impressive, but when considered together, it is difficult to imagine a more deserving ...

Dr. Dennis Kent has made many distinguished contributions to paleomagnetism that have had extensive and fundamental impact in the wider Earth sciences. Dr. Kent is a broad thinker who focuses on the bigger questions in his research field and beyond....

David Dunlophas made major discoveries with far-reaching implications in geophysics through his experimental research on magnetite fine particles and by developing, with Professor Wyn Williams, the first 3D numerical model for nanostructured magnetit...

Since the beginning of the space age, the environment outside Earth’s neutral atmosphere has been a laboratory for fundamental plasma physics, for the interaction of the solar wind with the bodies of the solar system, and for phenomena that imp...

It was recognized at the very outset of the space age that a complete description and understanding of plasmas in space would only be achieved if electric fields (from DC to high frequencies) could be measured together with the particle fluxes and th...
