“…We used “Biblioshiny” because of its various advantages. First, it’s an open-source package; second, it produces an online framework for data analysis; third, through an interactive web interface it allows visual analysis (Mougenot & Doussoulin, 2022) and fourth, it’s non-coder friendly (Hao et al, 2021). However, one of its major weaknesses is that data cleaning is not possible through its interface.…”

Digital technologies have radically changed the tourism industry and gaining a lot of attention from the stakeholders. At present, there is voluminous but fragmented research to cover the various aspects of digital tourism, but a consolidated “big picture” of the extant research is missing. By performing a bibliometric analysis of 827 papers on digital tourism, an attempt has been made to fill this void. The investigation revealed that the management of smart destinations, the internet as a communication and marketing channel, technology and sustainability, and consumer behavior are emerging research directions in digital tourism. Observations regarding little scientific interest and collaborations in regions like Russia and Africa present an opportunity for researchers and businesses to set directions and strategies for the future.

“…A bibliometric study was carried out to examine the scientific literature on olive oil. As with previous bibliometric assessments, the type and volume of olive oil studies were tracked and analysed via a non‐statistical meta‐analysis (Hao et al ., 2021; Kandel et al ., 2021). The complete records (titles, authors, abstracts, and cited references) of these 7 003 articles were exported from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) in plain text and bib format and used as the data set for this study.…”

Advances in olive oil research have blossomed in recent years, and articles on olive oil have been widely recorded. However, a comprehensive and systematic bibliometric analysis of olive oil research has not been completed. Through a systematic literature search, we consolidated 7003 papers from the Web of Science Core Collection database. This bibliometric analysis was carried out to examine the article growth, geographical distribution, and analysis of journals/research areas/authors/keywords. The results revealed the following: (1) Exponential growth was shown in the annual number of publications (R 2 = 0.9791). The geographical distribution is biased to a few countries, especially Spain, Italy, and Greece in the Mediterranean region, placing a larger focus on olive oil research. (2) Quality analysisrelated research acted as a link between keyword groups, the disease prevention and treatment-related research of olive oil received decreasing interest, while authentication and quality analysis-related research of olive oil showed the opposite trend, by-products-related research of olive oil got waving interests over the whole period. (3) Improvement is needed in the degree of olive oil with international collaboration. This is the first time that hotspots and trends in olive oil research have been shown.

“…As e-flows research continues to accelerate and expand in China, additional tools such as the exploratory analysis demonstrated here using hydrological landscape classification, may help in prioritizing applications to basin management. To date, Chinese e-flow research has focused primarily on physical modeling and intersection of human activities (Hao et al 2021). However, the regulatory environment has placed increasing emphasis on multi-basin, multi-objective planning (Chen and Wu 2019).…”

“…The Yangtze River is expected to be one of the global hotspots of dam construction in the coming decades with dozens of planned large dam projects (Zarfl et al 2015; Cheng et al 2018). With a dedicated focus of recent Chinese government policy on the development of e‐flows and river management (Chen and Wu 2019) and increasing research in e‐flows science (Hao et al 2021), there is an urgent need to improve the quality and efficiency of flow management leveraging readily available data sources. This study focused on the Yangtze River basin because of its intersection between rapid development and increased interest in e‐flow science in the Chinese context.…”

Regulated rivers worldwide are managed to meet human demands and reduce flood hazards but the resulting flow regime often fails to support ecological and hydrogeomorphic processes. Designing environmental flows (e‐flows) for regulated rivers has been the focus of recent studies, but in the absence of site‐specific monitoring data, it can be difficult to assign flow regimes. Given the recent development of dams throughout China, and the desire to minimize adverse downstream ecological effects, we classified river basins to identify characteristics for improved basin management. The purpose of the classification is to minimize the need for localized data when developing initial evaluations for planning e‐flow prioritization plans. Building on the functional flow framework of managing rivers to deliver environmental water in the right place, time, and amount, we use k‐means consensus clustering to group 185 subbasins of China’s Yangtze River into seven hydroclasses (consensus = 0.80). Similar hydrogeomorphic and ecological characteristics are used for the purposes of identifying flow regime components indexed against threatened aquatic species and anthropogenic pressures. This case study can inform water resource management and e‐flow requirements broadly. As hydropower dams are expected to more than double over the next 15 years globally, flexible management strategies that balance ecosystem needs with human demands can support efforts for sustainable development.
