Dr. Stephen Jackson, the Director of the Southwest and South Central CASC, has been recognized as among the world’s most influential researchers by the Web of Science’s 2020 Highly Cited Researchers list. Dr. Jackson’s research employs tree rings, fossil rodent middens (or remains), and sediments from lakes and bogs to investigate how past climatic changes and human activities have affected species distributions, biodiversity, and ecosystem properties. This is the fourth year Dr. Jackson has been recognized in the list of Highly Cited Researchers.

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 18 and includes 6,167 researchers across multiple fields from more than 60 countries. USGS scientists James Grace (Wetland and Aquatic Research Center) and Craig Allen (Fort Collins Science Center) were also recognized.
