Bibliometric analysis is widely used to analyze the processes of change in scientific studies around the world. In this context, bibliometric analysis; It is important in determining the trend of research. In this article, a bibliometric analysis of the performance and change processes of scientific research on soil organic carbon and soil organic carbon stocks between 1970 and 2021 was conducted, based on articles published in journals scanned in Web of Science. The sequestration of soil organic carbon in terrestrial ecosystems has a key role in ameliorating the negative effects of climate change, and this attracts the attention of scientists. The results of this study show that the articles on the subject are increasing day by day. Although the first study in this area was conducted in 1991, most of the research was done in 2020. It has been determined that the publication language of most of the articles is English. The most studies are in the category of soil sciences and the most publications related to the subject have been published in Geoderma journal. When evaluated on the basis of research area, the most research is in agriculture, followed by environmental sciences, earth sciences and forestry sciences. The USA and China are the two most active countries in studies, and the USA is the leader in soil organic carbon research. The most cited authors on the subject are Koegel-Knabner, Ingrid, Smith, Pete and Lal, Rattan. Current research focuses on agricultural sciences, earth sciences and ecology. climate change and food security issues have been discussed. It is thought that focusing on carbon budget, food safety and public health issues in the studies to be carried out will contribute to filling the gaps in the related field.
