Abstract

Sustainable development is an emerging field worldwide; given sustainable development, environmental concern is a significant and critical area. An attempt was made in this study to investigate the research areas and patterns associated with the growth of publication and citation growth related to sustainable development and environmental concerns. As a result of the download of 2258 publication details from the SCOPUS database, research data was downloaded and analyzed based on Vosviewer software by downloading and analyzing the research data. In the analysis of sustainable development and environmental concerns, scientometric analyses were conducted based on co‐authorship, keyword occurrence, bibliographic coupling, and co‐citation to visualize the results of the scientometric analysis.
