Extensive reviews and meta-analyses are essential to summarize emerging developments in a specific field and offering information on the current trends in the scientific literature. Shale gas exploration and exploitation has been extensively debated in literature, but a comprehensive review of recent studies on the environmental impacts has yet to be carried out. Therefore, the goal of this article is to systematically examine scientific articles published between 2010 and 2015 and identify recent advances and existing data gaps. The examined articles were classified into six main categories (water resources, atmospheric emissions, land use, induced seismicity, occupational and public health and safety, and other impacts). These categories are analyzed separately to identify specific challenges, possibly existing consensus and data gaps yet remained in the literature.
广泛的综述和荟萃分析对于总结特定领域的新进展以及提供科学文献当前趋势的信息至关重要。页岩气勘探与开采在文献中已得到广泛讨论，但尚未对近期有关环境影响的研究进行全面综述。因此，本文的目的是系统地审查2010年至2015年间发表的科学文章，并确定近期进展和现有的数据差距。所审查的文章分为六个主要类别（水资源、大气排放、土地利用、诱发地震活动、职业与公共健康及安全，以及其他影响）。分别对这些类别进行分析，以确定具体挑战、可能存在的共识以及文献中仍然存在的数据差距。
