• Geodynamo Simulations—How Realistic Are They? (2002, background): “The argument for nonslip boundary conditions (Roberts & Glatzmaier 2000a) is one of consistency.”
• Energetics of the Core (2015, background): “This approach is convenient and will be followed here, although a no-slip boundary condition would be more realistic (see Roberts and Glatzmaier 2000).”
• Fluctuation dynamo and turbulent induction at low magnetic Prandtl numbers (2007, background): “…physical mechanism most likely to be responsible for the ubiquitous presence of dynamically strong magnetic fields in the Universe — from planets and stars to galaxies and galaxy clusters (e.g., Moffatt 1978, Childress & Gilbert 1995, Roberts & Glatzmaier 2000, Ossendrijver 2003, Widrow 2002).”
• RECENT GEODYNAMO SIMULATIONS AND OBSERVATIONS OF THE GEOMAGNETIC FIELD (2002, methodology): “Although hyperdiffusivity is certainly an arbitrary assumption, it may be unavoidable for some time to come when strongly driven dynamos are studied [see Roberts and Glatzmaier, 2000a].”
• Statistical theory of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence: recent results (2004, background): “On dynamo, the key references are books by Moffatt [125] and Krause and Rädler [91], and recent review articles [25,67,155] .”
• Global-Scale Turbulent Convection and Magnetic Dynamo Action in the Solar Envelope (2004, background): “…of MHD convection in rotating spherical shells have generally focused on parameter regimes more characteristic of the geodynamo and other planetary interiors (e.g. Kageyama & Sato 1997; Christensen, Olson & Glatzmaier 1999; Roberts & Glatzmaier 2000; Busse 2000a,b; Ishihara & Kida 2002).”
• The paleomagnetism of single silicate crystals: Recording geomagnetic field strength during mixed polarity intervals, superchrons, and inner core growth (2006, methodology): “…core-mantle boundary heat flux allows the geodynamo to operate at peak efficiency, as suggested in some numerical models [Glatzmaier et al., 1999; Roberts and Glatzmaier, 2000], whereas the succeeding period of reversals may signal a less efficient dynamo with a lower and more variable dipole…”
