Mangroves are crucial ecosystems that provide significant ecological, economic, and social benefits, including coastal protection, carbon sequestration, and biodiversity support. However, their long-term survival is increasingly threatened by human activities, climate change, and ineffective governance. This study aims to identify major trends, thematic clusters, influential publications, and emerging issues in mangrove research. Through PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) approach, a total of 210 published between 1190 and 2025 peer-reviewed articles was retrieved from the Scopus database and analyzed using bibliometric methods to uncover research patterns and gaps. Visualization tools such as VOSViewer and the Biblioshiny R package were employed to map key concerns in mangrove management. The results indicate a steady increase in mangrove-related research, driven by the growing urgency of climate change and environmental degradation. Research is largely dominated by institutions and countries with extensive mangrove distributions. Eight primary research clusters were identified, including Coastal Zone Management, Environmental Policy, Degradation, Remote Sensing, Co-Management, and Community Participation. The findings underscore the urgent need for coordinated, multidisciplinary approaches to mangrove management that integrate ecological conservation with socio-economic dimensions. This study offers a comprehensive roadmap for future research, emphasizing areas such as socio-ecological resilience, innovative governance models, and the integration of local knowledge into policy-making.
