Abstract:
The bibliometric analysis method can quantitatively analyze the research hotspots and development trends for the field of seepage monitoring. The research results showed that the application and research of global seepage monitoring have been in a clear positive trend since 1981, based on available statistics. The observation holes/wells, electrical-resistivity tomography, piezometer are widely used from 1981. Although optical fiber sensing technology and remote sensing technology started late, they have developed rapidly and gradually matured in recent years. The dam safety, water pollution, agricultural irrigation and soil stability are the research hotspots in the seepage monitoring field, and the multidisciplinary in this field has become an obvious trend. The United States, China, Canada and other countriesz scientific research institutions have made many contributions in the seepage monitoring field at present, and both the volume of publications and the H—index are in a leading position. This article counts the number of publications, H-indexes,and citations of ToplO issue journals, which all come from publishers in the US, the Netherlands, and Canada. The research results may provide a reference for the seepage monitoring of future research and practice.
