The leading academic platform for scientists Research.com published the 2023 rankings of worldwide Earth scientists. The annual rankings are compiled in reliance to citation rates within a certain field of study and serve as relevant lists of leading scientists in said field.

In the 2023 list, Oleg Pokrovskiy, a staff scientist at the Midi-Pyrenees Observatory (Toulouse, France) and the head of the TSU Laboratory for Biochemical and Remote Sensing Methods for Environmental Monitoring (BioGeoClim), ranked 1st among Russian scientists and 597th worldwide.

The BioGeoClim research projects coordinated by Oleg Pokrovskiy encompass a wide array of issues related to global climate and rational management of natural resources. In particular, laboratory staff study the aftermath of climate change in the arctic and sub-arctic areas of Russia, functioning of natural ecosystems, and biogeochemical processes and their influence on the socioeconomic aspects of human life.

Additionally, the Russian top 5 includes Igor Semiletov, a corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the head of the TSU Laboratory for Complex Study of the Ground-Shelf Arctic System (ranked 1851st worldwide).
