Abstract

Summary

This paper examines the bibliometric landscape of the knowledge base on the impact of war and hostilities on soils in the world. The results of the bibliometric analysis (using the VOSviewer) of publications according to the Scopus database showed insufficient attention by scientists to the problem of assessing the impact of wars on the quality of soils and lands, and determining the damage and losses caused to them as a result of hostilities. Therefore, this work is one of the first attempts to fill in the gaps and encourage the scientific community to further discussions on improving the methodology for assessing the damage and losses caused to lands and soils, as well as finding ways for the aggressor to quickly compensate for these losses in order to financially ensure the restoration of war-damaged soils.
