As China's economy shifts to a high-quality development stage and a"double-cycle"development pattern is proposed,the role of the Silk Road on Ice in international trade is becoming increasingly prominent.A certain amount of research has been carried out by academics around the Ice Silk Road initiative.In order to clarify the research dynamics of the Silk Road on Ice,the article conducts cluster analysis and multi-dimensional scale analysis of the relevant literature on the Silk Road on Ice from 2017 to 2022 included in the China Knowledge Network database through bibliometrics and content mining.The study found that the research hotspots include the study of the Northern Sea Route,the study of legal issues of Arctic governance,the study of Arctic governance in the context of the"Silk Road on Ice",the study of the inherent challenges in the Northeast region in the context of the"Silk Road on Ice",the study of Arctic international coopera-tion,and the revitalisation of Northeast China in the context of the Silk Road on Ice.By combining quantitative and qualitative research methods,the research will provide reference for further expanding the research space of the Silk Road on Ice.
