DIDCOT
Oxfordshire
U.K. Higher Scientific Officer, promoted Senior Scientific Officer in September 1983, to Grade 7 in June 1989, to Individual Merit Grade 6 (Band 2) in June 1993 and to Individual Merit Grade 5 (Band 1) in June 2001. Work has included: HF propagation theory; interpretation of data from the EISCAT incoherent scatter radars and from the AMPTE, VIKING, ISEE, DMSP, Polar and Cluster satellites; theory of solar wind-magnetosphere- ionosphere coupling; and analysis of long data series. Areas of study have included non-thermal plasma, ionospheric plasma outflows, convection during substorms, signatures of pulsed magnetic reconnection, cusp precipitation; and long- term solar change and its effects. PI for the EARTHSHINE satellite proposal.
