Widely cited: Two scientists on the Clarivate list

Prof. Dr. Tobias Plieninger and Prof. Dr. Stefan Seuring are once again among the most cited researchers internationally this year, according to the US company Clarivate Analytics. This is according to Clarivate's annual "Highly Cited Researchers" list.

Seuring heads the Department of Supply Chain Management at the University of Kassel and has been on the list every year since 2018. Plieninger, head of the Department of Social-Ecological Interactions in Agricultural Systems at the Universities of Kassel and Göttingen, is now named to the list for the fourth year in a row. Both scientists are listed in 2022 in the "Cross-Field" category, i.e. with interdisciplinary contributions.

Only those researchers whose contributions make up the top 1% of cited papers in their field are included on the list. This year, a total of about 7,200 individuals landed on it, including 4,000 in specific research fields and 3,200 in the "Cross-Field" category. The relevance of the list entry for the scientific community is great; thus, it can be assumed that researchers whose work is among the top 1% cited have a high impact on their subject community and, in the case of interdisciplinary research, also on adjacent research fields.
