Abstract

İklim değişikliği tüm canlıların yaşam şekillerini etkileyebilecek küresel bir sorun olarak görünmektedir. Çalışmada, iklim krizi ve iklim değişikliği alanında yapılan bilimsel çalışmaların bibliyometrik analizinin gerçekleştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bibliyometrik analizler, literatürdeki konuya ilişkin yayınların derinlemesine incelenmesini, konuya ilişkin bilimsel araştırma eğilimlerinin belirlenmesini, araştırmacılar arasındaki iş birliğinin ve ön plana çıkan konuların değerlendirilmesini sağlar. Çalışma nitel bir araştırma olup bibliyometrik araştırma yönteminden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma verilerine ilk olarak 04 Ağustos 2022 (Saat: 14:34) tarihinde “Web of Science” veri tabanından çevrimiçi tarama şeklinde ulaşılmıştır. Ancak güncel verilerin çalışmaya dahil edilebilmesi için bazı veriler 18 Temmuz 2023 tarihinde (Saat: 15:00) aynı veri tabanı kullanılarak revize edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler VOSviewer yazılımına aktarılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada, iklim krizi ile ilgili yayınlarda en sık kullanılan anahtar kelimelerin iklim değişikliği, iklim krizi, sürdürülebilirlik, çevre, iklim adaleti ve antroposen olduğu belirlenmiştir. Analiz edilen yayınların çoğunluğunu çevre bilimleri, meteoroloji, atmosfer bilimleri, ekoloji, multidisipliner yer bilimleri ve çevre çalışmaları olmak üzere farklı disiplinlere ait çalışmaların oluşturduğu tespit edilmiştir. İklim krizi ile ilgili yayınların ülkelere göre değerlendirilmesi yapıldığında, en fazla atıf alan ülkelerin İngiltere, Kanada, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, İsveç ve Norveç olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak iklim değişikliği ve iklim krizi ile etkili mücadele için ülkeler arasında bilimsel iş birliği ve veri paylaşımı önemlidir. Farklı disiplinler arasında iş birliği ve bilgi paylaşımını teşvik ederek daha etkili ve kapsayıcı çözümler üretilebilir. Aynı zamanda, farklı dillerde yapılan çalışmaların teşvik edilmesi ve ortak terminolojiye hakim olunması, küresel işbirliğini güçlendirebilir. Toplumsal farkındalığın ve dirençliliğin artırılmasında, sürdürülebilir politikaların oluşturulmasında bilimsel çalışmaların analiz edilmesinin ve değerlendirilmesinin önemli olduğu düşünülmektedir.

Bibliometric analysis of climate crisis and climate change research

Abstract

Climate change is a worldwide issue that can influence the way of life of all living beings. This study aims to perform a bibliometric analysis of climate crisis and climate change scientific studies. Bibliometric analyses give an in-depth assessment of the literature's publications on the subject, the identification of scientific research trends on the subject, the evaluation of researcher collaboration, and the evaluation of significant issues. The study is qualitative research, and a bibliometric research method was used. The research data was first accessed on 04 August 2022 (Time: 14:34) from the "Web of Science" database as an online search. However, some data were revised on 18 July 2023 (Time: 15:00) using the same database in order to include up-to-date data in the study. The obtained data were transferred to VOSviewer software and analyzed. According to the survey, climate-related articles most used keywords include climate change, climate crisis, sustainability, environment, climate justice, and Anthropocene. Most of the studied papers are from many disciplines, such as environmental sciences, meteorology atmospheric studies, ecology, geosciences multidisciplinary, and environmental studies. When the publications on climate catastrophe are examined by country, the most cited countries are England, Canada, United States, Sweden, and Norway. As a result, international scientific collaboration and data exchange are critical for a successful battle against climate change and the climate crisis. Collaboration and information exchange between disciplines can result in more effective and inclusive solutions. Encouraging studies in other languages and knowing common terminology can help to promote global collaboration. The examination and assessment of scientific findings are vital in enhancing societal awareness and resilience, as well as in developing long-term policy
