A bibliometric method based on Science Citation Index-Expanded published by the Thomson Reuters was used to quantitatively assess the global estuary pollution research from 1991 to 2010. The main results were as follows: there had been a notable growth trend in publication outputs. Marine Pollution Bulletin was the most active journal. Environmental sciences were top popular subject categories. USA produced the most single, internationally collaborative, first authored and corresponding authored articles. The Chinese Academy of Sciences was the most productive institute for the total articles. Sediment was the most active research topic, which ranked 1st in article title, article abstract, author keyword, and KeyWords Plus analysis, respectively. Heavy metals received stable focus on a high degree in the field of estuary pollution research. Mostly refractory organic compounds (e.g. PAHs) became more active. Biomarkers and bioaccumulation both were active issues. Eutrophication of estuarine waters receives increasing concern in estuary pollution research.
采用汤森路透出版的科学引文索引扩展版的文献计量学方法，对 1991 年至 2010 年全球河口污染研究进行了定量评估。主要结果如下：出版物数量呈显著增长趋势。《海洋污染通报》是最活跃的期刊。环境科学是最受欢迎的学科类别。美国发表的单篇论文、国际合作论文、第一作者论文和通讯作者论文最多。中国科学院是发表论文总数最多的机构。沉积物是最活跃的研究主题，分别在文章标题、文章摘要、作者关键词和关键词加分析中排名第一。在河口污染研究领域，重金属一直是稳定的研究重点，关注度很高。大多数难处理的有机化合物（如多环芳烃）变得更加活跃。生物标志物和生物积累都是活跃的研究课题。河口富营养化越来越受到河口污染研究的关注。
