Relationship between climate change and tourism: an integrative review

Abstract

ABSTRACTThe relationship between tourism and climate change has been explored and studied for a considerable amount of time. In the past quarter-century, more specialised research has emerged, and most recently, the subject of adaptation has been highlighted as an essential study requirement in tourism and climate change studies. This study offers a comprehensive literature assessment on climate change and tourism to date. We did a Boolean-based search on Scopus and got 703 records, which were then analysed bibliometrically using the bibliometrix package of R. It covers adaptation issues, the characteristics of vulnerability in a tourism setting, and the ramifications of such research for local communities. This study illustrates the difficulties associated with the interdependence of climate change and tourism by presenting the most relevant authors, countries, key terms, and research fields. In addition to descriptive insights into the field, we provide the conceptual framework (keyword analysis and thematic map). In addition to bibliometrically evaluating the publications, we closely reviewed the sample studies to gain a more comprehensive picture of the literature on climate change and tourism. Our evaluation reveals significant knowledge gaps and offers future research and policy objectives. Our study has suggested multiple research avenues for this topic.摘要在旅游研究中,旅游业与气候变化之间的关系已被探讨和研究了相当长时间。 在过去的四分之一世纪中,出现了更为专门的研究,最近,适应问题被强调为旅游和气候变化研究中的一项必不可少的研究要求。 本研究提供了关于气候变化和迄今为止旅游的综合文献评估。 我们对 Scopus 进行了一次基于 Boolean 的搜索,并获得了七百〇三个记录,然后使用R的 bibliometrix 包对这些记录进行了参考分析。 它涵盖了适应问题、旅游环境中的脆弱性特征以及这种研究对当地社区的影响。 本研究通过介绍最相关的作者、国家、关键术语和研究领域,说明与气候变化和旅游业相互依存有关的现代困难。 除了对该领域的描述性见解(作者地图和国家协作),我们还提供概念框架 （关键词分析及专题图）. 除了对出版物进行文献评估外,我们还仔细审查了样本研究,以便对气候变化和旅游方面的文献获得更全面的了解。 我们的综合评估揭示了重大知识差距,并提出了未来研究和政策目标。 我们的广泛研究为这一主题提出了多种研究途径。KEYWORDS: Climate changeadaptationtourism experienceintegrative reviewvulnerability关键词: 气候变化适应旅游经验综合审查脆弱性 AcknowledgmentsWe are appreciative of the research infrastructure provided by our universities for allowing us to conduct our research.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementData for this study is available on the Scopus database.Notes1 Excluded Subject Categories: Engineering, Arts and Humanities, Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Computer Science, Decision Sciences, Earth and Planetary Sciences, Economics, Econometrics and Finance, Energy, Engineering, Immunology and Microbiology, Materials Science, Mathematics, Medicine, Neuroscience, Nursing, Pharmacology, Toxicology, and Pharmaceutics, Physics and Astronomy, Psychology, Veterinary, Dentistry, Health Professions
