The observed area covers Germany and Austria up to 2025. Since the main effects of climate change in this region...

Summary In this paper, we investigate the informational content of citation-based research evaluations. To illustrate our analysis we refer to the 2005 Handelsblatt ranking of German academic economists. We make extensive use of the recently developed Hirsch-index and relate citation incidence...
