I am earnestly grateful to have been included in the list of top 2% scientists worldwide based on the assessment of their career-long citation impacts of their publications from Scopus Database published by scientists from Stanford University [Ioannidis JPA, Boyack KW, Baas J (2020) Updated science-wide author databases of standardized citation indicators. PLoS Biol 18(10): e3000918. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.3000918]. I owe this honour to my co-workers, students, my Alma Mater (IIT Roorkee), National Institute of Hydrology and my family & friends.
This Formal Comment presents an update to citation databases of top-cited scientists across all scientific fields, including more granular information on diverse indicators.
