Abstract

The transportation sector is one of the major sources of global carbon emissions. In this study, a bibliometric analysis was conducted using CiteSpace and VOSviewer for articles published in the field of transportation carbon emissions (TCEs) between 1997 and 2023. From this analysis, our research shows that: (a) the number of articles on TCEs has grown rapidly since 2010; (b) China, the United States, and the United Kingdom are important research forces, with the Helmholtz Association of German having the highest number of publications; (c) Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment is the most cited journal in this field; (d) the current research hotspots mainly focus on theory and methodological approaches, low-carbon travel, green supply chain management, and carbon emission drivers; (e) while, scenario analysis, data envelopment analysis, and vehicle routing problem are popular keywords that have been used in the research field of TCEs in recent years. Finally, using current research trends, our study also proposes a series of future research endeavors for the field of TCEs.

基于文献计量分析的交通运输碳排放研究综述

运输部门是全球碳排放的主要来源之一。在这项研究中，使用CiteSpace和VOSviewer对1997年至2023年间发表在交通碳排放（TCEs）领域的文章进行了文献计量分析。根据这一分析，我们的研究表明：（a）自2010年以来，关于TCE的文章数量迅速增长；（b）中国、美国和英国是重要的研究力量，其中德国亥姆霍兹协会的出版物数量最多；（c）《交通研究D部分：交通与环境》是该领域被引用最多的期刊；（d）目前的研究热点主要集中在理论和方法论方法、低碳出行、绿色供应链管理和碳排放驱动因素；（e）而场景分析、数据包络分析和车辆路径问题是近年来TCE研究领域的热门关键词。最后，结合当前的研究趋势，我们的研究还提出了TCE领域未来的一系列研究方向。
