Abstract
Ocean literacy (OL) is crucial in sustainably maintaining and protecting the oceans. The main objective of this research is to present bibliometric data on articles related to OL in Indonesia published in journals indexed in the SINTA database between 2014 and October 2023. Articles collected from 26 articles published within the scope of this research were bibliometrically analyzed based on five categories: 1) number of articles published each year, 2) most frequently used keywords, 3) type of research used, 4) universities or institutions that conduct OL research, and 5) journals that publish OL articles. Bibliometric analysis shows that most articles regarding OL studies were published in 2021 (8 articles). The keywords most frequently used are ocean literacy, literacy, and environmental education. The types of research often used are quantitative research (10 articles) and qualitative research (9 articles). The university with the most OL articles published is Universitas Maritim Raja Ali Haji (UMRAH) (8 articles). This study presents a perspective on OL research in Indonesia that can be used as a reference for researchers, educators, and parties involved in sustainably preserving the ocean in the future.
