Abstract

Eutrophication has become a top environmental issue for most lake ecosystems in the world and enhanced phosphorus (P) input is usually considered the primary stressor. Focused on the role of phosphorus in eutrophic lakes, a bibliometric approach was applied to quantitatively evaluate the main interests of research and trends in this area. Using data from the Science Citation Index Expanded database between 1900 and 2013, a total of 3,875 publications was returned by searching topic keywords. Spatial, temporal, and interactive characteristics of the articles, countries, and keywords are presented using time series, frequency, and co-occurrence analysis. Result shows that the annual publications on P in eutrophic lakes keep an exponential growth (R 2 = 0.93; p
