ABSTRACT

Sustainable intensification (SI) is a necessary approach to overcome the contradictions between food demands and resource and environmental constraints. We reviewed 2,475 papers on the topic ‘Sustainable Intensification,’ from Web of Science (WOS), with the help of visualizations drawn by CiteSpace and Biblioshiny. The objectives are: (i) to clarify the concept and connotations of SI, and (ii) to draw conclusions on the current situation, hotspots, and trends in SI research. The results show that: (1) Although SI has become one of the most frequently and widely used terms, its precise definition needs to be defined. (2) The number of papers on the topic of SI has been increasing, especially in the last five years. (3) A group of core authors, a representative journal cluster, and a cooperative research network have all been established. (4) Arable agriculture is the main field of SI research.

摘要

可持续集约化（SI）是克服粮食需求与资源环境约束矛盾的必要途径。在 CiteSpace 和 Biblioshiny 绘制的可视化的帮助下，我们审查了来自科学网 (WOS) 的 2,475 篇关于“可持续集约化”主题的论文。目的是：（i）阐明SI的概念和内涵，（ii）总结SI研究的现状、热点和趋势。结果表明：（1）虽然SI已成为最常用和最广泛使用的术语之一，但其精确定义仍需明确。(2) SI主题的论文数量一直在增加，尤其是最近五年。(3) 核心作者群、代表性期刊群、合作研究网络均已建立。
