AB  - Purpose – The paper undertakes a bibliometric analysis and assessment of journal publications in the field of
container terminal operations research (CTOR), in an attempt to identify high-impact papers (HIPs) published in
Science Citation Index/Social Science Citation Index (SCI/SSCI) journals ofCTORsubject category from1973 to 2020.
Design/methodology/approach –Astructured approach for identifying the HIPs is developed based on the
utilization of bibliometric and network analyses.
Findings – The CTOR papers are assessed in terms of publication outputs, distribution of outputs in SCI/SSCI
journals, authorship, institutions and countries, as well as citation life cycles of papers with the highest total
citations since their publication until the year 2020. The results show that between 1989 and 2015, there were 82
HIPs in the field of CTOR, which have been cited at least 200 times, with more than 50% of these citations
allocated in the second part of paper citation life cycle according to the database of Google Scholar.
Practical implications – The practical implication of the aforementioned reviewing and assessing journal
publications of CTOR is that it offers the ability to reveal the tone of its development through addressing main
characteristics of the relevant HIPs as determined by the highly cited papers in this field of research.
Originality/value – This paper offers a unique analysis and assessment in the field of CTOR by identifying
the relevant HIPs and their associated scientific actors (authors, institutions and countries), thus facilitating the
future research effort in the field of CTOR.
