- Infrastructure and logistics;
- Energy;
- Regulatory adjustments;
- Safety.
1.2. Development of Sustainable Aquaculture
1.3. Research Gap, Aim, and Contribution of the Paper
- Detection of emerging topics in the field of mariculture published in the last decade;
- Summary of the conducted research and illustration of major knowledge groups in the field;
- Identification of the most cited journals and authors in the field;
- Identification of research hotspots;
- Summary of the current status and possible future development trends;
- Advantages and drawbacks of CiteSpace and VOSviewer and their differences for scientometric purposes, where the mariculture field is taken as a test case.
2. Methodology
2.1. Introduction to Analysis Tools
2.2. Data Collection
3. Results
3.1. Citation and Keyword Analysis
3.2. Identified Hotspots
3.3. Authors’ Analysis
3.4. Countries and Journals Analysis
4. Discussion
5. Conclusions
- Technical and environmental problems are more studied than other challenges. Focus should be not only on these problems, but on the location choice and its challenges, waste management, or feeding process in the mariculture production.
- Most publications in the field of mariculture were published in 2021, and the number of citations of publications are continuously growing.
- The most common identified hotspots are divided into four categories: technical, biological, digital, and environmental.
- Based on the citation analysis, the most cited articles are related to the environmental problems and solutions in the marine aquaculture and study of biofouling and how to control it. Other important documents with high citation rates are related to the cages, offshore mariculture, location conditions, and sustainability.
- Countries with highly developed aquaculture production are those with the most articles, such as the USA, China, Australia, Canada, Norway, and Scotland, as expected.
- The top three journals in the field of aquaculture are Fish and Fisheries, Reviews in Aquaculture, and Aquaculture Nutrition; they are all ranked with Q1 or first quartile.
- CiteSpace has more options for filtering and analyzing the data, and various combinations while analyzing cited journals, keywords, authors, abstract words, and others. VOSviewer is preferable for mapping the data and visualization (e.g., countries or keywords). Cluster differentiation is more accurately explained in CiteSpace, and it is more specific than in VOSviewer.
