Adaptive water governance is a critical and emerging topic in the water governance response to global climate change. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the research situation and development trend of adaptive water management through systematic literature review and bibliometric analysis. The results show an overall growth trend of published articles on adaptive water governance, focusing mainly on environmental science and environmental studies. While developed countries dominate water governance research, China ranks sixth in terms of the number of articles worldwide. The research on adaptive water governance has formed a preliminary global collaborative network, but the authors' collaboration needs to be strengthened. Key topics in adaptive water governance research include South Africa, adaptive management, groundwater, principal component analysis, scenario planning, etc. These findings highlight the critical role of adaptive water governance in sustainable urban development and suggest it as a critical direction for future research in water governance.
Adaptive water governance plays an increasingly important role in sustainable urban development and water governance response to global climate change. To comprehensively understand the research situation and development trend of adaptive water management, this study conducts a systematic literature review of articles published in International Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI) journals based on bibliometric analysis. The results show that adaptive water governance as an emerging topic of water governance has an overall growth trend in published articles. The articles on adaptive water governance mainly concentrated on the disciplines of environmental science and environmental studies. Developed countries are a hub for water governance research, and China has the sixth largest number of articles from around the world. The adaptive water governance research has formed a preliminary global collaborative network, but the authors' collaboration needs to be strengthened. The most popular topics of adaptive water governance include South Africa, adaptive management, groundwater, principal component analysis, scenario planning, the analytic hierarchy process, resources, basins, computer experiments, and technology development. This finding suggests that adaptive water governance is a critical driver for sustainable urban development and represents a critical direction in the future research of water governance. HIGHLIGHTS Adaptive water governance research in social sciences journals have been quantitatively analyzed. The bibliometric method with CiteSpace software has been applied. Adaptive water governance is a critical and emerging topic in the water governance response to global climate change.
