Abstract
The impact of land use and land cover (LULC) on hydrology is gaining increased attention due to global concerns about water sustainability. Although various studies have been conducted related to the topic, there were only a few publications that specifically focused on the effects of LULC on soil water infiltration. This study gathered and synthesized relevant research publications and performed co-occurrence and co-citation analyses to identify the existing themes and the research development trend on LULC-soil infiltration relation. Analysis of 103 Scopus-indexed articles from as early as 2000 revealed four major themes: soil characteristics, hydrology and watershed, hydrology and management, and groundwater and LULC. These findings highlight key areas of focus and can assist in identifying research gaps and topics requiring further exploration. The paper offers a concise overview of the current research trajectory in the realm of LULC and soul water infiltration.
