Global Trends in Climate Communication Research on Print Media

This article reports on a bibliometric investigation of peerreviewed research articles on climate change reporting in the press, primarily in newspapers, from January 2013 to December 2023. The results indicate that while there has been a general increase in the amount of climate communication research, it is heavily tilted towards highincome countries in terms of the region of research focus and the host countries of the authors. Moreover, the discipline was found to be restricted in its discussion of public response and the influence of stakeholders in climate conversations. Additionally, the study points to an emerging pattern of interconnectedness between research on communication of global health crises like Covid-19 and climate change. The study highlights an urgent need for diversity in accommodating voices from the Global South for more holistic growth of climate communication.
