Land Use, Carbon Effects, Bibliometrics, Research Hotspots.Abstract
Under the global climate change and the synergistic advancement of the dual-carbon strategy, research on carbon effects of land use and its regulatory pathways has emerged as a core scientific proposition for achieving carbon neutrality. This study systematically analyzes 396 publications related to land use and carbon emissions in China from 2011 to 2024 through knowledge mapping analysis using Citespace bibliometric tools based on the Web of Science Core Collection. Key findings reveal: (1) Distinct stage characteristics in research evolution, progressing through initial, steady, adjustment, and rapid expansion phases; (2) A monocentric polarization pattern in scientific collaboration networks; (3) Significant spatiotemporal dimensions and multidisciplinary integration in research themes. The study highlights critical needs for enhancing dynamic monitoring and long-term effect evaluation, strengthening analysis of driving pathways for land system carbon reduction, and advancing policy synergy and innovation to provide theoretical support for territorial spatial planning optimization.
