Abstract

Kentleşme, biyoçeşitliliği olumsuz yönde etkileyen bir süreçtir. Birçok araştırmacı doğal yaşam alanlarının kentsel gelişmeden zarar gördüğünü rapor etmektedir. Kentleşmenin neden olduğu ekosistem parçalanmasının sonucunda bitki ve hayvan türlerinin yaşam alanları daralmaktadır. Sonuç olarak endemik türler yok olmakta ve yerli türler sayıca azalmaktadır. Bu çalışma ile temelde kentsel yayılımın biyolojik çeşitlilik ile ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Bu amaç kapsamında Scopus veri tabanında “biodiversity”, “urban” anahtar kelimeleri kullanılarak bir arama yapılmış, bu arama daha sonra “loss” kelimesi ile filtrelenmiştir. Söz konusu işlemlerin sonucunda elde edilen toplam nihai 1827 doküman kayıt edilmiş ve devamında Bibliometrix adıyla bilinen araç kullanılarak bibliyometrik ağ analizine tabi tutulmuştur. İncelenen çalışmalar sonuç olarak özetle, geçtiğimiz birkaç yüzyılda dünyadaki ormanların yarısının ve sulak alanların önemli bir kısmının tahrip edildiğini göstermektedir. Buna ek olarak her yıl milyonlarca insan hava kirliliğinden ölmekte ve dünya nüfusunun bir milyarı kronik açlık çekmektedir. Geçmişi 1990'lı yıllara kadar dayanan çalışmaya konu 1827 doküman kentleşmenin, sulak alanlar ve ormanlar ve dolayısıyla da hayvan ve bitki türlerinin yaşam alanları üzerindeki potansiyel etkilerinin belirlenmesi için daha fazla sayıda derinlikli araştırmanın gerekliliğini ortaya koymaktadır.

Are Urbanisation and Biodiversity Antithetical? A Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

Urbanisation is a process that negatively affects biodiversity. Many scholars report that natural habitats suffer from urban development. The habitats of plant and animal species shrink because of the fragmentation of ecosystems caused by urbanisation. This leads to the extinction of endemic species and a decline in the number of resident species. The main interest of the present study was to examine how urban expansion relates to biodiversity. To this end, a basic search on Scopus using the keywords “biodiversity” and “urban” was made, later which was filtered with the keyword “loss”. The obtained final total of 1827 documents were recorded and then subjected to the bibliometric network analysis by using the tool named Bibliometrix. These studies conclude in sum that half of the world's forests and a significant proportion of wetlands have been destroyed over the past few centuries. Moreover, millions of people die each year from air pollution, and one billion of the world's population suffers from chronic hunger. The 1827 documents retrieved date back to the 1990s, suggesting that more in-depth research is required to determine the potential impacts of urbanisation on the wetlands and forestry and consequently on the habitat of animal and plant species.
