Highly cited influential authors: BGC scientists again in citation ranking 2021

Markus Reichstein, Sönke Zaehle, Martin Jung and Jens Kattge recognized again.

The annual who’s who of highly cited scientific authors again includes four scientists from MPI-BGC, namely our directors Markus Reichstein and Sönke Zaehle as well as our group leaders Martin Jung and Jens Kattge. This means that MPI-BGC belongs to the most cited Max Planck institutes since many years.

The annual ranking of highly cited scientists draws on the data and analysis performed by bibliometric experts from the Institute of Scientific Information at Clarivate Analytics. The publication and citation data come from the Web of Science, a web-based database containing the scientific literature of over 30,000 journal titles.
