It's a new year so I figured I should maybe introduce myself. 👋
I'm a 🇬🇷🇳🇱 researcher at Uni Münster. I work on ancient carbon cycling, mainly with numerical models though I don't shy away from real data.
I like: books, (metal) music, hiking and photography.

"Some people may perceive one category up from another one as only a "little" bit stronger. Like earthquake scales, the hurricane intensity scale increases logarithmically. That means a doubling of wind is not a doubling of damage. It actually results in a 256-fold increase in possible damage."

Lots of excellent posts already about how much this sucks. I also wonder how this will be used/ignored by fields that place author names alphabetically (I know this happens in atl some Physics fields).
Google Scholar has introduced a 'Sh-index' metric that scores papers higher if you are first or last author. Apart from the fact metrics are generally bad, this one explicitly punishes PIs who often collaborate, publishing with 2 or 3 equal PIs at the end of the list.

And related to this, aren’t don’t some sub-fields in geoscience, such as palaeo, usually have the senior author as the last author?
Maybe if you’re the senior author it’s less important for you to get the magic beans that this new Google metric would give you…? 🤔

In a strong field, this ranks as a particularly shitty metric.
