Milestones Achieved

Two More Papers from the Working Group on Geomorphology and Soil Science Attain "Highly Cited Paper" Status

We are proud to announce that two recent publications from the Tübingen Working Group on Geomorphology and Soil Science have achieved the prestigious status of "Highly Cited Paper." This recognition reflects the impactful and influential nature of the research conducted by our dedicated team.

The first paper, titled "Improving the spatial prediction of soil salinity in arid regions using wavelet transformation and support vector regression models", delves into the field of predicting soil salinity utilising machine learning algorithms with the aim to improve agricultural productivity in arid regions. Its recognition as a "Highly Cited Paper" underscores the significance of the findings and the relevance of the research to the broader scientific community.

In the second paper, titled "Global maps of soil temperature", global maps of soil temperature and bioclimatic variables at a 1-km2 resolution for 0–5 and 5–15 cm soil depth were created. This achievement reaffirms the Tübingen Working Group's commitment to producing high-quality research that contributes to the advancement of our field.

We extend our sincere gratitude to all collaborators, supporters, and contributors who have played a crucial role in these accomplishments. This recognition motivates us to continue our pursuit of excellence and innovation in the realm of geomorphology and soil science.
