What Is the Importance of Wetlands in Reducing Disaster Risks?: What Do Scientific Reports Tell Us?
Abstract
This chapter provides a bibliometric analysis of 960 scientific publications from 1978 to 2024, focusing on the connection between wetlands and disaster risk reduction. The study highlights the sharp growth of research in recent decades, underlining wetlands' essential roles in flood mitigation, climate regulation, and the provision of ecosystem services. It identifies major trends such as the use of remote sensing technologies, the integration of climate adaptation strategies, and the need for interdisciplinary collaboration. The findings emphasize the importance of including wetlands in policy frameworks, advancing restoration practices, and promoting stakeholder participation. Overall, the chapter concludes that wetlands are vital natural assets that enhance resilience and sustainability, offering valuable insights for shaping future research, policy, and practical action.
