Marine / Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) should be implemented to effectively regulate the activities carried out in the seas and to reduce pressures on the marine area by rationally managing natural resources. A quantitative analysis of scientific research on marine spatial planning is essential to fill critical knowledge gaps in the field, guide the development of appropriate policies and strategies, and strengthen the practice of sustainable marine spatial management. The aim of this study is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the literature on the concept of marine spatial planning. The research was performed searching for the string “marine spatial planning” or "maritime spatial planning" on documents title, abstract and keywords. The first study on MSP was published in 2006. Until 2024, 1,654 publications on MSP were published. The number of publications per year showed an increasing trend throughout the research period. The journal 'Marine Policy' establishes itself as the premier source for MSP publications, publishing approximately 18%. Given the limited existing bibliometric analyses on MSP, the authors expect that this study will contribute to literature and guide future research.

VOSVİEWER KULLANILARAK DENİZEL MEKÂNSAL PLANLAMA ARAŞTIRMALARININ BİBLİYOMETRİK ANALİZİ

Öz

Denizlerde yürütülen faaliyetlerin etkin bir şekilde düzenlenmesi ve doğal kaynakların akılcı bir şekilde yönetilerek denize alanı üzerindeki baskıların azaltılması için Denizel Mekânsal Planlamanın (DMP) uygulanması gerekir. Denizel mekânsal planlama konusundaki bilimsel araştırmaların nicel bir analizi, bu alandaki kritik bilgi açıklarını doldurmak, doğru politika ve stratejilerin belirlenmesine rehberlik etmek ve sürdürülebilir denizel alan yönetim pratiğini güçlendirmek açısından büyük bir öneme sahiptir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, denizel mekânsal planlama kavramıyla ilgili literatürün bibliyometrik bir analizinin yapılmasıdır. Veriler, Web of Science veri tabanından alınmış ve VOSviewer yazılımı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmalar, belgelerin başlık, özet ve anahtar kelimelerinde "marine spatial planning" veya "maritime spatial planning" terimleri aranarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. DMP ile ilgili ilk çalışma, 2006 yılında yayımlanmış ve 2024 yılına kadar toplam 654 yayın yayımlanmıştır. Çalışma dönemi boyunca yıllık yayın sayısı artan bir eğilim göstermiştir. “Marine Policy” dergisi, DMP içerikli yayınların yaklaşık %18’ini yayınladığı ve DMP konulu makalelerde tartışmasız önde gelen dergi olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Literatürde DMP ile ilgili bibliyometrik temelli çalışmaların sınırlı olduğu dikkate alındığında, bu çalışmanın alanyazına katkı sağlaması ve gelecekteki araştırmalara yol göstermesi yazarların beklentileri arasındadır.
