“…important that the existing research community recognize this need and provide rewards for participation in interdisciplinary research. The ranking of countries shows that the research originates mainly from developed countries such as US, Germany, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, France, Spain and Italy.Beside these leaders developed countries, highlights the presence of the BRICS Countries China, India, Brazil, South Africa and, more moderate, Russia(Aleixandre et al, 2015). In terms of collaboration, it is noteworthy the strong cooperation between US and China, and the involvement of Developing Countries such as South and Central American (Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Peru, etc.…”

Climate change refers to an alteration in the state of the climate that can be identified by changes in the mean and the variability of its properties. Climate change reflects abnormal variations in the Earth's atmosphere and subsequent effects on other parts of the planet, such as on crop lands, reducing the annual yield. The objective of this paper was to contribute to a better understanding of the scientific knowledge in climate change and his effect concerning agriculture, as well as to investigate its evolution through the published papers. Items under study were obtained from Web of Science (WOS) platform from Thomson Reuters. A bibliometric and social network analyses was performed to determine indicators of scientific productivity, impact and collaboration between authors, institutions and countries. A subject analysis taking into account the key words assigned to papers and subject areas of journals was also carried out. A total of 1,471 articles were included in the selected subject categories in WOS since 2005 until 2014. The most productive journals were Agricultural and forest Meteorology, Forest Ecology and Management, and Agriculture Ecosystems & Environment. Excluding climate or climatic change, the most frequent keywords have been CO2, Adaptation, Model, Temperature and Impact. The network of collaboration between countries shows the central position of the United States, together with other leading countries such as China, Canada, Australia, Germany, and United Kingdom. This work has provided helpful insights into the climate change research in Agricultural subject areas, wich had grown steadily during the last decade. The network of collaboration between institutions and countries involve both centres from developed and developing countries, and it is noteworthy the cooperation between US and China. Highly cited papers reveal the concern on emerging climate change risks for forest, the impact on forest ecosystems, the effect on plant diseases and adaptation options.

“…Countries with a high rate of research growth such as China and Brazil have increased their share in wine science. The growth of wine research in China and Brazil was also noted in an analysis of research in BRIC countries (Aleixandre et al ). While part of the growth for Latin American countries is due to their advancement in science, it should be noted that the inclusion of non‐English journals from those countries in WoS (Aleixandre et al ) during the study period has also played a part in the increase in the number of their publications.…”

“…Australia, Belgium, Denmark, England, The Netherlands, New Zealand and South Africa are clustered and Canada, India, Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Turkey and USA are clustered. Previously, Aleixandre et al () noted that the BRIC countries prefer to collaborate with the USA. The current data show that while India and China are close to the USA in their collaborations, most of Brazil's collaboration is either with its neighbours or part of Europe.…”

“…Some other studies have dealt with specific countries and found increasing trends in wine science. For instance, South African wine science researchers published 406 papers between 1990 and 2009 with a high degree of internationalisation of collaboration (Aleixandre‐Benavent et al ); Latin American scholars published 917 articles between 2006 and 2010 with an increase in international collaboration (Benavent et al ); Europe and USA collaboratively published 498 articles between 1991 and 2010 with the University of California Davis acting as a central position in the collaboration network (Aleixandre‐Benavent et al ); Brazil, Russia, India and China (BRIC countries) published 1067 publications from 1993 to 2012 with China and Brazil being, respectively, the top two most productive countries (Aleixandre et al ). Although wine production has increased in Mexico, wine science research output has been slower.…”

Background and Aims The economic value of wine has increased over the years due to the emergence of new producers and new markets. In line with this, the global distribution of research outputs in viticulture and oenology has also shifted since this informs wine production and consumption. This study investigates the trends in wine and grape publications indexed in Web of Science (2002–2017). Methods and Results Using bibliometric techniques, citation impact, research specialisation and collaboration network were analysed. China had the largest annual growth in wine‐related publications, Spain had the largest total number of wine‐related publications and the USA had the highest citation impact. Australia was the sixth in terms of publication share and fifth in terms of citation share. European countries collaborate mostly with one another and Portuguese and Spanish speaking countries form another collaboration cluster. Wine and grape science is a diverse field with food science and technology scholars being the main contributors and funding coming mostly from governments agencies. Conclusions Scientific collaboration in the field does not closely follow the grouping of countries into Old and New World wine producers. While the amount of published wine research was strongly correlated with wine production for Old World countries, there was no correlation for New World countries. Significance of the Study This study improves the search strategy for retrieving wine and grape research from scholarly databases. It also provides an up‐to‐date account of global wine research trends.

“…Grapes have become one of the most widely distributed fruit species in China [61], and almost all Chinese provinces and autonomous regions have commercial vineyards (Figure 2). Within China, between the latitudes of 45 • N and 25 • N, many unique wineries have become a hotbed for both Chinese and foreign investors [62]. At present, grape production is mostly concentrated in the northwest arid region (e.g., Xinjiang, Gansu, Ningxia and Inner Mongolia), the arid and semi-arid area of the Loess Plateau (Shaanxi and Shanxi), the Bohai Bay area (Beijing, Liaoning, Hebei, Tianjin), the ancient riverbed of the Yellow River (Henan, southwestern part of Shandong, North Jiangsu, and North Anhui) and the semi-humid area of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.…”

Analyzing Regional Geographic Challenges: The Resilience of Chinese Vineyards to Land Degradation Using a Societal and Biophysical Approach

Land degradation, especially soil erosion, is a societal issue that affects vineyards worldwide, but there are no current investigations that inform specifically about soil erosion rates in Chinese vineyards. In this review, we analyze this problem and the need to avoid irreversible damage to soil and their use from a regional point of view. Information about soil erosion in vineyards has often failed to reach farmers, and we can affirm that to this time, soil erosion in Chinese vineyards has been more of a scientific hypothesis than an agronomic or environmental concern. Two hypotheses can be presented to justify this review: (i) there are no official and scientific investigations on vineyard soil erosion in China as the main topic, and it may be understood that stakeholders do not care about this or (ii) there is a significant lack of information and motivation among farmers, policymakers and wineries concerning the consequences of soil erosion. Therefore, this review proposes a plan to study vineyard soil erosion processes for the first time in China and develop a structured scientific proposal considering different techniques and strategies. To achieve these goals, we present a plan considering previous research on other viticultural regions. We hypothesize that the results of a project from a regional geographic point of view would provide the necessary scientific support to facilitate deriving guidelines for sustainable vineyard development in China. We concluded that after completing this review, we cannot affirm why vine plantations have not received the same attention as other crops or land uses.
