Abstract
Earth Sciences and Polish geologists on the PLOS Biology ranking list.
A b s t r a c t. Based on the ranking list of the top 2% of the world’s most cited scientists, published by the PLOS Biology journal in 2022, the authors of the article analysed the place of Earth Sciences among other fields of science and the position of Polish geologists on the list, determined based on a composite index taking into account popularity of scientific publications, resulting from the number of their citations. The analysis results allow geologists to present Earth Sciences against other fields of science and to show the names of geologists from Polish research centres who are among the most frequently cited scientists in the world.
