Scientific research on ecosystem services and human well-being: A bibliometric analysis

Ecosystem services and human well-being have received increasing scientific interest owing to their importance in influencing sustainability. Yet, quantitative and visual analyses of the scientific literature on ecosystem services and human well-being remain scarce. Here, we explored the scientific...
