The ranking is based on comprehensive data from the Scopus database and six key indicators: total citations (with and without self-citations), the Hirsch H-index, the Schreiber Hm-index (adjusted for co-authorship), and weighted authorship roles (sole, first, or lead author). Out of nearly 7 million researchers worldwide, only the top 2% across 22 scientific fields and 174 subfields are included, reflecting the rigor and prestige of this recognition.
The inclusion of 27 JEEA Editorial Board members reflects their individual academic influence and contributions to environmental exposure research. We congratulate all recognized members and look forward to their continued impact on the global scientific community.
