dc.description.abstractBackground: A team of 3 scientometrists led by John Ioannidis published in 2020 an extensive and updated database (ca. 6.9 million researchers in 22 disciplines and 176 sub-disciplines), ordering them according to a composite bibliometric index that measures their whole trajectory (career-long) impact and their annual impact at year 2019. They reported the top 100,000 scientists (1.45% across all disciplinary felds) or the top 2% of each subfeld discipline, thus publishing the ranking of ca. 150,000 researchers worldwide. Methods and fndings: We fltered that information for the disciplinary and sub-disciplinary areas corresponding to Ecology and identifed a total of 14 ecologists with residence in Chile that appear in either of those two worldwide rankings. We report their measured productivity as both whole trajectory (career-long) and as annual impact at year 2019. We attribute their high registered productivity to their training at the doctoral level in prestigious foreign universities, their academic positions in internationally recognized Chilean universities, and their participation in statefunded research centers of scientifc excellence. Exceptions to the rule are presented. Conclusions: The 14 ecologists identifed with the scientometric algorithm proposed by Ioannidis and coworkers include, but are not restricted, to the most cited ecologists in Chile. We put forth possible reasons for some puzzling omissions from these rankings.
