Abstract:

This study used bibliometric analysis to investigate the research status, hotspots, and trends of wetland ecosystem service functions on a global scale by using literature published between 2002 and 2022 in the Web of Science core database. VOS viewer software was employed to conduct bibliometric and visualization analysis on the publication volume, countries, core authors, research institutions, and research hotspots of wetland ecosystem service function research. The results showed that the number of papers published in the field was generally increasing; the United States and China are the two countries with the highest number of papers published in the field; the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the USGS are the research institutions with the highest number of papers published; a grouping of high-frequency keywords identifies the research hotspots as “Benefit”, “Soil”, “China”,and “Marsh”, which are closely related to wetland ecosystem services and provide a variety of research directions for the future development of the field. This study provides a reference for relevant researchers in the research trend and future research hotspots of wetland ecosystem services.

Key words: wetlands, ecosystem service functions, bibliometrics, visualization analysis
