Marine Ranching Studies: Insights from a Bibliometric Perspective

As a sustainable development model to coordinate ecological restoration and fishery proliferation, marine pasture has become the frontier field of global marine science in recent years under the background of the decline of offshore resources. It constructs a complex ecosystem through key technologies such as habitat building and biological domestication, and achieves the dual goals of efficient development of fishery resources and enhancement of marine carbon sink capacity. In this paper, 480 documents in WoS database are visually analyzed by bibliometrics method, and the research status and trend are revealed. Future research needs to strengthen interdisciplinary integration, focus on breaking through key technical bottlenecks such as digital twinning of pasture ecosystem, and help the implementation of the "blue granary" strategy.
