A Bibliometric Analysis of Carbon Finance Based on Web of Science (WOS) ()
ABSTRACT
Carbon finance and low-carbon development have received
increasing attention in response to global
environmental problems and economic transformation towards low carbon,
but there is a relative lack of research in this area, both in domestic and
abroad. Based on the WOS database, this paper uses the CiteSpace, a visual
analysis tool, to analyze the number of articles published, spatial
distribution and research hotspots in the field of carbon finance for a total
of 31 years since 1992. Through combing through the carbon finance literature,
it is found that there are three major problems with the existing literature.
Firstly, the research content lacks innovation; secondly, there are few
quantitative studies and the results thus lack persuasive power; thirdly, there is a shortage of macroeconomic development
analysis. The future path of carbon finance research should focus on the
aspects of multidisciplinary crossover-research and targeted research on
models.
