Environmental displacement can be defined as forced migration occurring entirely or partly from local environmental restructuring. This includes displacement from sudden environmental events, such as storms, earthquakes, and tsunamis, or from long term changes related to the impacts of climate change, development, conservation‐related residential displacement, and environmental gentrification. Over the past decade, investigating the human impacts of displacement has become an emerging focus within displacement research. The idea of displacement is not only difficult to define but challenging to measure, due in part to a multitude of influences environmental factors have on the ability to stay put. Displacement throughout history has occurred from many factors, including social, political, environmental, and economic. Environmentally related displacement is arguably the most unpredictable form of displacement and is increasingly a problem for both the Global North and the Global South. Geographers have not always focused on these issues, although researchers are increasingly exploring this inherently spatial and temporal problem. A more thorough understanding of environmental displacement is possible by exploring available and relevant interdisciplinary research methods and methodologies used for analyses. This review focuses on literature that links both event‐driven and ongoing change‐driven displacement to environmental change to reveal the patterns across several subfields of displacement research and suggest areas for further development.

环境位移与强迫迁移研究中的新兴研究方法

环境流离失所可被定义为全部或部分来自当地环境重组的强迫迁移。这包括因突然的环境事件（例如暴风雨，地震和海啸）或与气候变化，发展，与保护相关的居民流离失所和环境高档化的影响相关的长期变化而引起的流离失所。在过去的十年中，调查流离失所对人类的影响已成为流离失所研究中的新兴焦点。流离失所的概念不仅难以定义，而且难以衡量，部分原因是环境因素对保持能力的影响很大。历史上的流离失所是由许多因素引起的，包括社会，政治，环境和经济。与环境有关的流离失所可以说是最不可预测的流离失所形式，并且对于北半球和南半球都日益成为一个问题。尽管研究人员越来越多地探索这个固有的时空问题，但地理学家并不总是专注于这些问题。通过探索可用的和相关的跨学科研究方法以及用于分析的方法，可以对环境位移有更透彻的了解。这篇综述着重于将事件驱动和持续变化驱动的位移与环境变化联系起来的文献，以揭示位移研究几个子领域的模式，并提出需要进一步发展的领域。
