Abstract
This paper delivers an in-depth bibliometric analysis of distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) research within the realm of geophysics, covering the period from 2012 to 2023 and drawing on data from the Web of Science. By employing bibliographic and structured network analysis methods, including the use of Bibliometrix and VOSviewer®, the study highlights the most influential scholars, leading institutions, and pivotal research contributions that have significantly shaped the field of DAS in geophysics. The research delves into key collaborative dynamics, unraveling them through co-authorship network analysis, and delves into thematic developments and trajectories via comprehensive co-citation and keyword co-occurrence network analyses. These analyses elucidate the most robust and prominent areas within DAS research. A critical insight gained from this study is the rise of ‘photonic seismology’ as an emerging interdisciplinary domain, exemplifying the fusion of photonic sensing techniques with seismic science. This paper also discusses certain limitations inherent in the study and concludes with implications for future research.
本文对地球物理学领域的分布式声学传感(DAS)研究进行了深入的文献计量分析,研究时间跨度为 2012 年至 2023 年,数据来源于 Web of Science。通过采用书目和结构化网络分析方法(包括使用 Bibliometrix 和 VOSviewer®),该研究突出了对地球物理学中的分布式声学传感(DAS)领域产生重大影响的最有影响力的学者、领先机构和关键研究成果。该研究深入探讨了关键的合作动态,通过共同作者网络分析揭示了这些动态,并通过全面的共同引用和关键词共现网络分析深入探讨了专题发展和轨迹。这些分析阐明了 DAS 研究中最活跃、最突出的领域。从这项研究中获得的一个重要启示是 "光子地震学 "作为一个新兴的跨学科领域的崛起,体现了光子传感技术与地震科学的融合。本文还讨论了研究中固有的某些局限性,最后提出了对未来研究的启示。
