4. Conclusions and Prospects
- (1)
- The results show that the number of research articles concerning land use planning has continued to increase from the perspective of publication trends. Especially after 2014, the number of papers has rapidly increased; this trend can be divided into the following four stages: the initial exploration stage, the preliminary growth stage, the stable development stage and the rapid development stage. From the perspective of the citations of the examined papers, the more extensive development stages of land use planning research occurred in 2002, 2005 and 2010. In general, the importance of land use planning research and the number of scholars participating in such research have gradually increased over time.
- (2)
- Regarding the countries participating in land use planning research, developed countries, such as European countries and the United States, conduct a large proportion of related research; as a developing country, China also occupies a critical position in land use planning. The most common keywords in the research field are land use planning, land use, GIS, urban planning, China, spatial planning and climate change. The earliest burst keyword is landscape ecology. The keyword bursts that began in 2005 and continued to the present are land use change, urban planning, ecosystem services, and spatial planning.
- (3)
- A cluster analysis of the high-frequency keywords concludes that future research should conduct the following: ➀ clarify and coordinate the relationship between land use changes and spatial/regional planning, ➁ improve the implementation of land use planning information technology, ➂ prioritize public participation in the planning process and actively solicit opinions and suggestions from the public, relevant government departments and other social sectors regarding research strategies, and ➃ balance the relationships among land use planning, environmental protection and ecological systems. In addition, it is an important research direction in the field of land use planning to pay attention to the restriction and guiding role of land use planning in urban expansion and sustainable development.
- (4)
- The research topics examined are divided into the following four evolutionary directions: research concerning the impact of land use planning on the protection of ecosystems, research concerning the impact of land use planning on climate change and natural environmental changes, research concerning the effects of land use planning on urbanization and agricultural development, and the development of information technology for land use planning.
- (1)
- Scholars from different disciplines have different focuses regarding land use planning issues. Geographers focus on a description of phenomena and characteristics of land use planning; economists focus on studies investigating the driving mechanisms of land use planning; planners focus on controlling land supplement and demand through planning and designing tools and restrictive policies; sociologists focus on studying social issues in land use planning; and environmentalists focus on the ecological issues caused by urban expansion. Regarding land use planning studies, continuity between disciplines and comprehensive interdisciplinary research are lacking. Therefore, there are only in-depth and meticulous research examples of land use planning mechanisms and governance strategies. In addition, strengthening dialogue and communication between disciplines can fundamentally solve these problems.
- (2)
- Currently, the research concerning land use planning mostly stays at the level of recommendations. Scholars from different disciplines have proposed corresponding policy recommendations from the perspectives of their respective disciplines, and systematic research concerning land use policy is lacking. There are few assessments of the effects of specific policy implementations. In addition, these studies often do not consider the developer’s response to plans and regulations. Therefore, strengthening the supervision and self-restraint mechanism of land use behavior, clarifying the land property system and evaluating the performance of land use planning are the focuses of future research in the field of urban expansion.
