Dynamic Evolution and Trend of Land Use Change Research: A Bibliometric Analysis Based on the WoS Core Database for 1990—2020

Abstract

Abstract: Land use change is one of the key factors that lead to global upheavals in ecosystem, human health and economic development. This paper conducts a bibliometric analysis and draws a knowledge map in relation to land use change literature in the core database of Web of Science from 1990 to 2020. The results show that research focus in the field of land use change is on spatiotemporal pattern, driving mechanism and impact of land use change. Based on a co-citation analysis, we sort out the evolution of land use change into three stages. The first stage is a spatial model of land use change. The second stage is land use change and interdisciplinary research. The third stage evolves into the impact of land use change on areas such as biodiversity, forest change, climate change and hydrology. We find three priorities for future researches in the field of land use change by burst-term analysis. (1) Global environmental and policy responses to land use change; (2) Improving the resolution and accuracy of urban sprawl models based on multi-source spatial geographic data and multi-scale data; and (3) Assessing the impact of land use change on ecosystem services and formation mechanisms. Bibliometric analysis on these emerging research hotspots can improve existing theoretical researches on land use change, which is not only illuminating for the interdisciplinary research on land use change, but also provides a reference for policy formulation in territorial spatial planning.

Key words: land use change, knowledge graph, bibliometrics, strategic coordinates
