The coastal space consists of a highly dynamic environment that is in constant changes, due to both natural factors and anthropogenic agents. Furthermore, erosion constitutes a natural process of evolution that makes up the dynamics geomorphology of the coastal area, shaping features such as cliffs. However, this phenomenon has been intensified due to the occupation and advancement of urbanization on the coast and, in as a result, it has generated major impacts on the coastal (eco)system, the population and the activities developed in these areas. With this in mind, the aim of this research is analyze, through bibliometric survey, the growth of discussions, in international scientific and academic community, about erosion processes in areas of seacliffs. As result, it is possible to highlight the growing curve of works published since 1993 to 2023, which reverberates the importance of studies on these processes which have repercussions on the dynamics of the coastal space and in the population, triggering disturbances and constituting hazard areas.
