He was also recognized as a Highly Cited Researcher in 2016 and 2017.

Since 2002, the Web of Science has presented an annual list identifying researchers who have demonstrated significant and broad influence in a chosen field through the publication of multiple papers that have been highly cited by their peers. This year’s list was announced on November 19 and includes 6,217 researchers across multiple fields from almost 60 countries. USGS scientists James Grace (Wetland and Aquatic Research Center) and Craig Allen (Fort Collins Science Center) were also recognized.
