Metrological analyses on literatures of shallow landslides using CiteSpace software

Abstract

Based on Web of Science database, 1240 papers retrieved from journals of shallow landslides from 1999-2019 were taken as samples, and CiteSpace was used to conduct bibliometric and visual analysis on the national / institutional, discipline / journal and high-frequency keywords in this field. The results show that: international cooperation in shallow landslides research is very common, and Italy occupies the core position in shallow landslides research. Both Italy National Research Council and Chinese Academy of Sciences play an important role in this field. GEOMORPHOLOGY and LANDSLIDES are representative journals of shallow landslide research. Hybrid model is the hot topic in the field of shallow landslide research.
