Bibliometric Analysis of Biodiversity as the Research Object
To understand the development status of biodiversity research in China,a visual analysis of relevant literature in the CNKI database from 1994 to 2024 was conducted using CiteSpace software.By mapping the annual publication volume,author collaboration,institutional collaboration,and high-frequency keywords,the evolution path,research hotspots,and development trends of the field are described.The emergence of keywords in different periods was analyzed to summarize the mainstream research hotspots of the current stage.The results show that:1)Over the past 30 years,the number of publications in the field of biodiversity research has shown a trend of fluctuating increase,followed by a fluctuating decrease,and finally a sudden surge;2)Collaboration among scholars and institutions is relatively weak,and future efforts should focus on strengthening cooperation among scholars and institutions to promote the formation of a broader collaboration network,thereby driving in-depth development in the field of biodiversity research;3)The research hotspots in the field of biodiversity can be summarized as biodiversity conservation,research on diversity,and the impact of climate change on biodiversity.Frontier analysis indicates that climate change,ecological restoration,and green finance have become new trends in research in this field.
