Abstract:
Passive dew and fog harvesting is currently
a topic that has begun to develop since the
issue of climate change and the water crisis
hit the world. Even though this topic is not
new, its development has been very intense
lately by many researchers from various
disciplines. However, this topic has not yet
become a major topic of conversation in the
architecture science. Therefore, this
bibliometric research was carried out, to see
the development of passive fog and dew
harvesting research related to architectural
science. At the same time to see
opportunities for positions that can be filled
by researchers and architects to contribute
and collaborate on this topic. The database
used is from Lens based on ten keywords
related to the topic of dew and fog
harvesting. The dataset is then processed in
Microsoft 365 Excel and VOSviewer to
obtain a scientific mapping which will be
interpreted afterwards. The results of this
study indicate that there are positions that
can be filled and there are still opportunities
that can be researched on this topic by
architectural scientists, particularly in
relation to context, locality, community,
sustainability, biomimetics, bioinspiration,
and low technology.
