“…Bibliometric review is also a popular method to understand the states and gaps in a specific field. Bibliometric review can analyze a considerable amount of publications and the diversified academic disciplines involved in the target field (Najmi, Rashidi, Abbasi, & Waller, 2017). In bibliometric analysis, scholars can use publications' attributes, including title, keywords, authors, references, publishing venue, and other metadata to evaluate and compare publishing productivity and collaborative activities of scholars, institutes, and countries; scholars can also analyze the evolution of the scientific field (Abbasi, Wigand, & Hossain, 2014).…”

Technology and innovation management (TIM) plays an increasingly important role in the survival and prosperity of firms and economic growth of countries, which makes it increasingly important to trace the trajectory of this research field. However, to date, few studies have analyzed the evolution of the field of TIM quantitatively. Aiming to achieve an overall understanding of the research in the field of TIM, this study extracts all publications in the top 13 journals on TIM and their references that could be located in the Web of Science. Next, through cocategory analysis, cocitation analysis, cokeyword analysis, and coauthor analysis, the crucial intellectual structure of the TIM field is identified, and the distribution and evolution of the hot spots of this field are presented. An overall picture, emerging trends, and key points of the field of TIM are provided, which might contribute to our understanding and future studies of TIM.

“…Additionally, it also highlighted the topics of most interest. Although this approach to Hg ecotoxicology is new to the Amazonian ecosystem, this research tool has been successfully used in other environmental areas of study, such as low-carbon development [23], waste management [24], transportation [25], and ecological environments [26]. In keeping with the Minamata Convention recommendations, this work adds research-based data and information on environmental Hg, generated in the unique Amazon ecosystem.…”

Because the Amazon rain forest is ecologically relevant on a global scale, we applied scientometric techniques to integrate studies dealing with mercury research in this unique ecosystem between 1991 and 2017. Using a combination of co-authorship and co-citation analyses, keyword mapping and overlay visualization of topics in the field, this article identified three major areas in the 26-year period of mercury research: (1) human exposure to mercury (artisanal small-scale gold mining-ASGM) and methylmercury through fish consumption, and their respective risks for human health; (2) mercury accumulation in the environment and its relation to ASGM and atmospheric concentration; and (3) mercury geochemistry and its presence in soils, sediments, and water. The paper also identified the leading institutions related to the published research and respective influential scholars in the context of this study. Overall, the analyses revealed patterns of convergence and divergence between authors, specialization, and interdisciplinary engagement in mercury investigation, thus highlighting strengths and weaknesses of research topics in the field. This scientometric approach could be a useful tool to monitor/assess the implementation of the Minamata Convention.

“…Their typical purpose is a visualization of how the topical organization of a given area of research is evolving over time, hence depicting the development of some cluster structure along the timeline, where the career and formation of individual clusters can be observed [splitting, merging, changes in size etc., cf. Bohlin et al (2014) or Najmi et al (2017)]. Our approach, however, utilizes alluvial diagrams in the original fashion.…”

Linking the dimensions of policy-related research on obesity: a hybrid mapping with multicluster topics and interdisciplinarity maps

et al. 2019

Mapping the intellectual structure and dynamics of complex, multidisciplinary domains has long been a challenging task for bibliometrics. Research subjects with outstanding social relevance are typically of this sort, being multifaceted and requiring a synthesis of various field-specific perspectives. Among such subjects, our work addresses policy-related research on obesity, and aims to uncover how this multilevel issue is represented in policy studies through its dense thematic interrelations, and at the interfaces of various research areas participating in the discourse. In doing so, we propose an analytic framework combining so-called hybrid methods of science mapping with the (traditional) use of alluvial diagrams, resulting in what we refer to as "multicluster topics" and "interdisciplinarity maps". Therefore, the contribution of this paper can be considered both at the subject and at the methodological level.
