Popis: Planetary health is crucial to human well-being, ecosystem sustainability, and biodiversity preservation. In this context, camera traps are an effective remote sensing tool for monitoring biodiversity. Given the rising importance of understanding biodiversity patterns and trends, this study examines possible factors influencing camera-trap studies and provides bibliometric insights from 2377 publications indexed in the Web of Science (WoS). To explore the potential drivers of camera-trap research growth, we used a logistic model based on specific variables, including global gross domestic product, temperature growth, a planetary health measure the declining living planet index, and human population growth. The living planet index was identified as a statistically significant driver of camera-trap research growth (p-value
