Study of fire in semiarid regions: a literature review

Resumen

The objective of this research is to conduct a literature review from the bibliometric and systematic perspectives on fire in semiarid regions at a global level, focusing on the application of remote sensing in data acquisition. For this review, bibliometrics were used, in which the quantitative approach was valued, through Bibliometrix, through the RStudio software and the WordClouds software for the word cloud. The search string “fire AND in AND semiarid” was used. The literature review is a procedure that can be used to support scientific research, or when the research is characterized exclusively as bibliographic. The research was carried out using two databases (Web of Science and Scopus). A total of 927 articles were found, 560 from Scopus (Sco) and 367 from Web of Science (WoS). After analyzing the exclusion criteria for duplication using RStudio, 226 articles were excluded, leaving 698 documents. For the systematic analysis, the articles were separated into two groups: direct method and indirect method, with the indirect method being related to remote sensing. From this screening, 193 articles were classified as indirect method, 493 as direct method, and 8 articles were outside the research context. Southern Africa, Australia, China, and the United States were the ones that presented the largest number of studied locations, corresponding to 10, 35, 12, and 42 articles, respectively. It can be observed that at the beginning of the 21st century, there was an increase in the number of publications, specifically from 2005 onwards, with more than 10 articles being published per year. It can be seen how valuable these studies are to the scientific community, since they reveal the most widely used remote sensing products for fire studies in the semiarid region.
