Analysis of Current State of SWAT Model Research Based on Bibliometrics by DU Bailin, WU Lei

“…In order to gain insights into the latest advancements,focal areas,and future directions in SWAT model research,this paper conducted a bibliometric analysis of its applications in eco-hydrological modeling by using the Web of Science^TM core database and the VOSviewer visualization software.The findings reveal that from 2000 to 2022,there has been a general increase in publications related to the SWAT model.Research efforts have primarily concentrated on three main areas:firstly,the hydrological simulation applications of the SWAT model to enhance scientific water resource management;secondly,investigations into the mechanisms of hydrological responses to climate and human activities,offering theoretical support for flood disaster prediction and response;lastly,studies on water quality simulation and optimal management strategies,providing theoretical foundations for the prevention and control of agricultural non-point source pollution.The distribution of research teams has shifted from concentrated to more dispersed.Future SWAT research will prominently focus on water resource management,hydrological response processes,and water quality simulation.…”
