Bibliometric Analysis of Groundwater and Climate Change Impacts Since 2000

Sandeep Kunwar's bibliometric analysis integrates Indian case studies with a global perspective using Web of Science and Scopus Core Collection data. It systematically reviews 726 publications since 2000, sourced from 140 peer-reviewed studies, to evaluate groundwater response to climate-driven pressures. The synthesis links groundwater-climate interactions across scales and was last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Identify research trends and hotspots in groundwater-climate studies based on the analysis of 726 publications.
• Analyze the influence of indirect drivers like land-use change and pollution on groundwater systems as described in the review.
• Support regional water resource management strategies based on the documented monsoonal variability and recharge challenges.
• Inform climate model development by highlighting gaps in groundwater representation mentioned in the synthesis.

Strengths

• Systematic review methodology (PRISMA) applied to 140 peer-reviewed studies.
• Analysis of 726 publications from Web of Science and Scopus since the year 2000.
• Integrates specific regional focus (Indian case studies) with a global perspective.

Limitations

• Dataset is a 19.4 KB DOCX file, indicating a limited textual summary rather than a primary data collection.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for quantitative analysis.
