Özet
In Türkiye, national parks play a prominent role among protected areas. Besides meeting people's recreational needs, these protected areas are home to natural and cultural resources. As a result, numerous research has been conducted to find out more about assets and recreational uses of these areas. In this study, the bibliometric analysis method was used to examine research published in Türkiye on national park between 2002 and 2021 within the scope of Clarivate Analytics' Web of Science (WoS). For this purpose, 156 publications, selected from the WoS database, were analyzed. The year 2017 had the most publications. In addition to Türkiye, significant countries in the spatial distribution analysis of national parks included the United States and Italy. About 338 authors in all were included in the author analysis for the publications from national parks. The current study found that 117 different institutions had publications about the national park. The highest number of publications and citations originated from Karadeniz Teknik and Kastamonu Universities, respectively. In this study, the WoS database was used as search engine because it is the most frequently preferred and recognized database, containing all records of high-quality research publications and continuing to be regarded as one of the primary sources of bibliographic information. However, some publications in other databases, such as Scopus and Google Scholar, cannot be overlooked in further research.
