A bibliometric analysis of the literature on the subject of Environmental Impact Assessment for a period from
2007 to 2015 was carried out under an expanding and shifting focus. For this purpose, the metadata used was
obtained through web of science and analyzed with the Histcite software. The search identified a total of 683
publications related to Environmental Impact Assessment in the period studied, allowing to study the main
journals involved in this topic. The country with the highest number of publications was the United States with
88 papers on the subject. On the other hand, the journal with the greatest influence on the subject was
Environmental Impact Assessment Review, with 1090 citations, representing the 8.7% of the total citations
between 2007 and 2015. Analyzing the evolution of publications per year, there was an increase in research
activity on the subject between 2012 and 2014, amounting to 45.6% in those years. According to the type of
document from the 683 publications, the 84.6% (578) were articles and 4.4% reviews. These results obtained
show an increase in the interest of researchers in the environmental impact assessment topic, which is in line
with the climate changes presented on the planet and the global concern to reduce the effects of greenhouse
gas, and the better use of natural resources.
