International Geomagnetic Reference Field: the 12th generation.
Earth Planets Space, 2015, 67:79, doi:10.1186/s40623-015-0228-9.

This paper presents the 12th generation of the International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) model which gives the standard geomagnetic model for the year 1900.0-2015.0 with secular variations to 2020.0. The model was a product from all the efforts in the geomagnetism community including geomagnetic observatories, magnetic field satellite missions, and IAGA V-MOD working group. It has been widely used in studies of the Earth's deep interior, crust, ionosphere, and magnetosphere. The paper is authored by 48 researchers and is now one of the most well-cited papers in Earth, Planets and Space with more than 332 citations (as of June 2019). Its contribution to the academic and relevant research is outstanding. Thus, we have decided that the first EPS special award should go to this paper.
