Introduction

Green Technologies is a broad research domain involving technological development and implementation intended to improve environmental performance and resource utilization. Research in this area can include energy systems, sustainable processes, materials, environmental engineering, emissions reduction, and technologies designed to improve the efficiency of industrial and societal systems. The field frequently intersects with engineering, environmental science, materials science, energy research, and policy-oriented sustainability studies.

Within this multidisciplinary context, Abdulaziz Bagabas is affiliated with KACST in Saudi Arabia. The supplied scholarly profile associates his research with Green Technologies and records a substantial body of indexed research outputs. Bibliographic indicators provide quantitative measures of publication and citation activity, although such indicators represent only one component of a comprehensive assessment of research quality and significance.[1]

Research Profile

The supplied research profile identifies Abdulaziz Bagabas as a KACST-affiliated researcher in Saudi Arabia. The bibliographic record contains 70 documents, with 1,827 citations and an h-index of 25. These figures provide a quantitative snapshot of the research activity associated with the supplied Scopus author identifier, 15219788300.[1]

  • Researcher: Abdulaziz Bagabas

The researcher’s ORCID identifier, 0000-0003-3590-7369, provides a persistent identifier for distinguishing the researcher from other authors and connecting scholarly activities across research systems.[2] The supplied Google Scholar profile provides another channel through which publications and citation information may be discovered.[3]

Research Contributions

Research within Green Technologies generally addresses technological approaches that can contribute to environmental sustainability and more efficient use of energy and material resources. In this context, the supplied subject classification places Bagabas’s scholarly profile within a field characterized by interdisciplinary research and practical technological applications.

The available bibliometric indicators indicate an established publication record. However, citation counts and h-index values should be interpreted in relation to publication year, discipline-specific citation practices, authorship, journal characteristics, and the individual contributions made to particular studies. Bibliometric indicators therefore provide useful contextual information rather than a standalone measure of research quality.[4]

Publications

The supplied Scopus profile records 70 documents associated with Abdulaziz Bagabas. The Scopus author record serves as the principal bibliographic source for the supplied document and citation figures.[1] Additional publication discovery can be performed through the researcher’s Google Scholar profile and persistent ORCID record.[2][3]

  • 70 documents are reported in the supplied Scopus profile.
  • The supplied Scopus record reports 1,827 citations.
  • The reported h-index is 25.
  • Publication discovery is additionally supported through ORCID and Google Scholar.

Research Impact

The supplied citation count of 1,827 and h-index of 25 indicate measurable scholarly visibility within the indexed research literature associated with the profile.[1] Citation-based measures can help contextualize the reach of published research, while researcher identifiers such as ORCID facilitate reliable attribution of scholarly outputs across databases.[2]

Research impact in Green Technologies can also be considered through factors beyond bibliometric indicators, including technological relevance, reproducibility, interdisciplinary collaboration, contribution to sustainable development, and potential application in environmental or industrial settings. A complete assessment would therefore require examination of individual publications, methodologies, datasets, collaborations, and documented applications.

The Innovative Research Award profile is presented in connection with the New Scientists Awards. Abdulaziz Bagabas’s supplied academic indicators include a substantial indexed publication record, 1,827 citations, and an h-index of 25, together with a stated research specialization in Green Technologies.[1] These indicators may provide relevant evidence for an academic recognition process focused on research activity and scholarly contribution.

Award suitability should ultimately be determined according to the applicable nomination criteria and evaluation procedures of the awarding organization. Bibliometric data can support such an assessment, but should be considered alongside the originality, methodological quality, relevance, and documented contribution of the research itself.[4]

Conclusion

Abdulaziz Bagabas is affiliated with the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) in Saudi Arabia and is associated with the research area of Green Technologies. The supplied bibliographic profile reports 70 documents, 1,827 citations, and an h-index of 25.[1] His ORCID and Google Scholar profiles provide additional pathways for researcher identification and scholarly discovery.[2][3] Collectively, these details provide a structured academic basis for presenting his profile in connection with the Innovative Research Award.
