Abstract

To enhance comprehension of current research progress in the field of ecohydrology and to provide valuable references for future related research, policy formulation and international collaboration, this article relies on ecohydrology‐related literature and citation records in four databases: China Knowledge Network (CNKI), Wanfang Database, Web of Science (WOS) and Elsevier, up until the end of 2022. We use publication and citation trends analysis along with keyword hotspot analysis using VOS viewer to investigate publication and citation trends in Chinese and English literature. The study systematically analyse the process of keyword changes and research hotspots in Chinese and international English literature, providing a detailed explanation of the differences in research hotspots and the reasons for their formation. The research indicates that since the inception of the term ‘ecohydrology’, relevant literature has displayed sluggish growth alongside rapid development. Additionally, alterations in primary keywords have differed between Chinese and English literature over time. However, ‘groundwater’ has consistently retained a significant amount of attention within Chinese literature. Groundwater has been extensively studied in Chinese literature, with a particular focus on eco‐hydrological processes, their effects, modelling and techniques. Similarly, English language literature is abundant with keywords denoting pivotal concepts like the environment, hydrology, fauna and rivers. These areas have been the focal points of research for international scholars. Regional characteristics, ecological conditions, economic development level and scientific research priorities, among other factors, are all significant contributors to the development of the field of ecohydrology. Differences in research hotspots can also be attributed to geographical characteristics, ecological environment conditions and scientific research priorities. Over the past decade, there has been a gradual convergence in research between Chinese and English literature. The current hotspots of research in ecohydrology include basic research, theoretical applications and adaptive wide‐area mechanistic research. In the future, the discipline of ecohydrology is likely to face numerous challenges and opportunities related to climate change, resource management, and societal needs. Interdisciplinary collaboration, technological innovation and global cooperation will continue to drive breakthroughs in ecohydrology research.
中外英文生态水文学研究热点分析
为了更好地了解生态水文学领域当前的研究进展,并为未来的相关研究、政策制定和国际合作提供有价值的参考,本文依赖于四个数据库中与生态水文学相关的文献和引文记录:中国知网 (CNKI)、万方数据库、科学网 (WOS) 和爱思唯尔 (Elsevier)。我们利用发表和引用趋势分析以及 VOS 浏览器的关键词热点分析来研究中英文文献的发表和引用趋势。研究系统分析了中英文文献关键词变化过程和研究热点,详细解释了研究热点的差异及其形成原因。研究表明,自 "生态水文学 "一词诞生以来,相关文献在快速发展的同时也呈现出增长乏力的态势。此外,随着时间的推移,中英文文献中主要关键词的变化也不尽相同。不过,"地下水 "在中文文献中始终保持着较高的关注度。中文文献对地下水进行了广泛的研究,尤其侧重于生态水文过程、其影响、建模和技术。同样,英文文献中也有大量表示环境、水文、动物和河流等关键概念的关键词。这些领域一直是国际学者研究的重点。地区特点、生态条件、经济发展水平和科研重点等因素都是生态水文学领域发展的重要因素。研究热点的差异也可归因于地理特征、生态环境条件和科研重点。近十年来,中英文文献研究逐渐趋同。当前生态水文学的研究热点包括基础研究、理论应用和适应性广域机理研究。未来,生态水文学学科将面临与气候变化、资源管理和社会需求相关的众多挑战和机遇。跨学科协作、技术创新和全球合作将继续推动生态水文学研究取得突破性进展。

期刊介绍: Ecohydrology is an international journal publishing original scientific and review papers that aim to improve understanding of processes at the interface between ecology and hydrology and associated applications related to environmental management. Ecohydrology seeks to increase interdisciplinary insights by placing particular emphasis on interactions and associated feedbacks in both space and time between ecological systems and the hydrological cycle. Research contributions are solicited from disciplines focusing on the physical, ecological, biological, biogeochemical, geomorphological, drainage basin, mathematical and methodological aspects of ecohydrology. Research in both terrestrial and aquatic systems is of interest provided it explicitly links ecological systems and the hydrologic cycle; research such as aquatic ecological, channel engineering, or ecological or hydrological modelling is less appropriate for the journal unless it specifically addresses the criteria above. Manuscripts describing individual case studies are of interest in cases where broader insights are discussed beyond site- and species-specific results.
