摘要
降雨模拟器(RS)首先被用于评估与土壤水分入渗、地表径流和土壤侵蚀有关的水文过程。它们允许在野外和/或实验室条件下对不同降水强度的降雨进行重复应用,并应产生具有类似于自然降雨的物理特征的事件。在本文中,我们对巴西模拟降雨的研究进行了文献计量学和科学计量学分析,以评估出版物的时间演变、主要主题和设备的技术发展程度。我们在Scopus、Web of Science、SciELO和Google Scholar数据库中搜索了“降雨模拟器”或“模拟降雨”和“巴西”。我们找到了过去37年(1985-2022)发表的143篇文章。研究结果表明,主要研究领域为土壤侵蚀(57.34%)、土壤水分入渗(24.47%)、养分流失(9.8%)和RS开发与校准/评估(8.39%)。近年来,在国际高影响因子期刊上发表的论文数量有所增加。大多数论文(49.65%)是由位于巴西南部和东南部地区的机构进行的研究。此外,巴西其他地区的模拟降雨研究存在较大差距,这些地区是塞拉多(Cerrado)、亚马逊(Amazon)、卡廷加(Caatinga)等重要生物群落及其过渡所在地。这项研究为模拟降雨下土壤侵蚀的研究重点提供了信息,并提供了一个书目数据库,有助于今后进行更详细的分析。
Simulated rainfall in Brazil: An alternative for assesment of soil surface processes and an opportunity for technological development
Rainfall simulators (RS) have been used, above all, to evaluate hydrological processes related to soil water infiltration, surface runoff and soil erosion. They allow repeatability of rain application with different precipitation intensities in field and/or laboratory conditions and should produce events with physical characteristics similar to natural rain. In this manuscript, we carried out a bibliometric and scientometric analysis of studies with simulated rainfall in Brazil to assess the temporal evolution of publications, the main topics addressed and the degree of technological development of the equipment. We searched for the terms “rainfall simulator” OR “simulated rainfall” AND “Brazil” in the Scopus, Web of Science, SciELO and Google Scholar databases. We found 143 articles published in the last 37 years (1985–2022). Our findings indicate that the main research areas covered in papers are soil erosion (57.34%), soil water infiltration (24.47%), nutrient losses (9.8%) and RS development and calibration/assessment (8.39%). In recent years, the number of published papers in international high-impact factor journals has increased. Most of the papers (49.65%) refer to studies carried out by institutions located in the south and southeast regions of Brazil. Moreover, there is a large gap of studies on simulated rainfall in other regions of Brazil, where important biomes such as the Cerrado, Amazon, Caatinga, and their transitions are located. This study informs research priorities on soil erosion under simulated rainfall and provides a bibliographic database that can assist in more detailed future analyses.
