Bibliometric Analysis of the Research (2000–2020) on Land-Use Carbon Emissions Based on CiteSpace

Carbon emissions are critical to climate change, and land-use change is an essential source of growth in carbon emissions. Research on has become one the hotspots academic research. To explore research development trends last 20 years, CiteSpace software was used conduct a quantitative analysis relevant literature. This paper based China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) Web Science (WoS) database literature from 2001 2020. The scientific cooperation network software, with keyword co-occurrence, clustering, burst word detection, systematically analyze main strengths, frontiers clarify progress. results as follows: (1) amount depth have increased yearly. However, there little between institutions scholars, still lack large-scale stable teams. (2) At hotspot level, English focuses building models theoretical frameworks study internal mechanisms driving factors change. Chinese achieving regional reductions cycle goals optimizing low-carbon economy, transportation structure. (3) show that first explored sequestration, organic carbon, accounting. In China, gradually becoming focused influencing factors, decoupling analysis, built environment. will strengthen intensity global emission provide reference for improving protecting ecology balancing economic development.
