Prof. Dr. Nadja Kabisch, professor for Digital Landscape Ecology at the Institute of Physical Geography and Landscape Ecology since 2022, was honoured in the category Social Sciences. Her interdisciplinary research focuses on natural solutions for climate change adaptation and reduction in urban areas. In 2020, 2021 and 2022, she was included in the list of Highly Cited Researchers in the categories Cross-Field and Social Sciences respectively.
Prof. Dr. Jürgen Caro, researcher and lecturer at the Institute of Physical Chemistry and Electrochemistry since 2001, was honoured in the Cross-Field category.
