Bibliometric review about eco-cites and urban sustainable development: trend topics

Abstract

The world is undergoing exponential urbanization, with consequences for society in general, both for cities and people, with serious economic, social and environmental implications. Therefore, it is crucial to reconsider urban models of cities, to ensure global, long-term sustainability. Numerous researchers have argued that one of these models involves eco-city projects, and this study aims to carry out a systematic review of the literature on this topic, through bibliometrics. To do so, the Smarter, Prisma and Vantage Point methods were used, reflecting the originality of the study. The results obtained show that China has aroused researchers’ interest regarding its eco-city projects, with most studies being empirical, and so this study complements them. The main contribution of this research lies in identifying the keywords most used by authors, these being eco-cities, sustainable cities (cluster 1) and eco-cities, China, sustainable urban development and eco-cycle model (cluster 2). Finally, implications for theory and practice are presented, together with suggestions for future research.

“…This listing of articles was exported to Excel to proceed with data processing under the methodological procedures set out in Table 1 . Data collection followed the criteria mentioned in Table 2 similarly to other systematic literature review studies (e.g., Rodrigues & Franco, 2022 ; Silva et al, 2021 ). In addition, the subsequent application of SMARTER allowed for a rigorous selection of the articles to be included in the review presented here, which was used in other research studies (e.g., Marques & Franco, 2020 ; Megaravalli & Sampagnaro, 2019 ; Roberts & Goodwin, 2002 ).…”

Identify the significant landscape characteristics for the perceived restorativeness of 8 perceived sensory dimensions in urban green space

“…Less attention has been paid to the impact of the internal attributes of the UGS on its restorative function. With the expansion of the world population and urban growth, cities in the future will become more densely populated and have more artificial buildings, causing the natural environment to become an even more precious resource [ 16 ]. Therefore, there is a pressing and significant need to explore which qualities are more important to inhabitants’ restorative experiences and perception in order to develop the natural environment in UGS further as an efficient resource for better health.…”
