黄土高原淤地坝研究进展

Research Progress on Soil-retaining Dam in Loess Plateau

[目的]对黄土高原淤地坝研究现状进行分析,旨在揭示今后淤地坝研究的重点方向和主要任务。[方法]利用学术论文数据库和文献计量分析法分析总结黄土高原淤地坝近16a来的主要研究成果,从淤地坝研究区域、研究方法、淤积机理等方面论述了淤地坝研究的重要进展。[结果]16a来,黄土高原淤地坝研究方向的论文数量呈现不断减少的趋势,同时存在着在拦沙功能效益客观评判方法、坝体加高修复等方面的难点或争议性问题。[结论]淤地坝是中国黄土高原小流域治理的主要举措,多年实践证明其已经取得明显的水土保持成果。今后国内学者还需继续拓展淤地坝的研究深度,注重多学科交叉和区域对比研究,不断提高淤地坝的科学研究水平。

[Objective] This paper analyzed the research status of soil-retaining dam aimed to provide a reference for future research on this topic.[Methods] Based on the network database of journal papers and bibliometric analysis, the research works in the past 16 years were analyzed and reviewed in terms of area, methods and deposition mechanism.[Results] The total number of research papers was in a fluctuated decrease trend in the past 16 years. Some arguments as the assessment of sediment retention function and dam heightening and other dispute topics still existed.[Conclusion] Soil-retaining dam was the key initiative in the watershed management of the Loess Plateau and years of practice have been proved significant on soil and water conservation. Scholars need to expand soil-retaining dam studies and multidisciplinary cooperation is necessary for improving theoretical level.
