Abstract

The relationship between people and land is becoming increasingly strained, and the optimal allocation of land resources and the redevelopment of stock has become the main path for urban construction and development. In this context, how to stimulate the potential value of urban landfills through landscape regeneration has attracted much attention. Based on the CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) database and the Web of Science core collection database, the bibliometric method was used to analyze a total of 1436 Chinese and English studies on urban landfill landscape regeneration using the scientometric literature analysis software CiteSpace 6.2.R3. From this, metrological and visual mapping analyses were undertaken, and literature co-citations were taken to reveal current trends in the research for urban landfill landscape regeneration. The results show that most of the existing studies focus on landfill pollution control (779 articles) and landscape regeneration design (517 articles). Further analysis of the trends shown in publications and research disciplines shows that the future development direction of landfill landscape regeneration will be led by the ecological restoration of the site and the organic combination of site pollution control and landscape planning and design to achieve sustainable landscape reshaping of landfills. This informs recommendations for the regeneration of landfill landscapes.
