Overview

Bibliometric analysis reveals rising global research on mall travel and transport emissions since 2017, highlighting emerging priorities in low-carbon retail access and data-driven urban planning.

Key Points

  • To synthesize the fragmented multidisciplinary literature linking shopping mall visitation with sustainable urban mobility and map its intellectual structure, collaboration networks, and emerging trends.
  • Retrieved 567 English-language articles and reviews published between 1 January 2000 and 7 May 2026 from the Scopus database.
  • Performed descriptive bibliometric indicators and VOSviewer-based document co-citation, country-level co-authorship, and keyword co-occurrence analyses.
  • Publication volume grew substantially after 2017, with China identified as the most prolific country and central hub for international research collaboration.
  • Identified six document co-citation clusters and five core keyword themes, with recent research shifting toward carbon emissions, sustainable development, online shopping, energy efficiency, and data-driven solutions.
