Riparian vegetation, as an integral part of river systems, provides various socio-ecological functions by strengthening the link between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. They provide comprehensive ecosystem services in physical, chemical, biological and social terms, establishing a critical link between humans and the environment. This study highlights the growing importance of riverine riparian vegetation and ecosystem services through a bibliometric analysis of scientific publications between 2000 and 2023. In the 494 publications analyzed in the study, 72% regulating (water quality, erosion prevention, climate regulation) and 43% supporting (habitat provision) ecosystem services were predominantly evaluated, while provisioning and cultural services were not sufficiently addressed. In addition, although various methods such as statistical analysis, GIS and model-based approaches were used in the reviewed studies, the lack of standardized assessment methods was identified. In conclusion, this study highlights the gaps in informed decision-making and planning in riparian areas. It emphasizes that protecting, managing and restoring riparian vegetation is critical for the sustainability of water resources, biodiversity, human well-being and overall ecosystem health.

Kıyı bitki örtüsü, nehir sistemlerinin ayrılmaz bir parçası olarak sucul ve karasal ekosistemler arasında bağlantıyı güçlendirerek çeşitli sosyo-ekolojik işlevler sunar. Fiziksel, kimyasal, biyolojik ve sosyal açıdan kapsamlı ekosistem hizmetleri sunarak insanlar ve çevre arasında kritik bir bağ kurarlar. Bu çalışma, 2000-2023 yılları arasında yapılan bilimsel yayınların bibliyometrik analizi yoluyla nehir kıyı bitki örtüsünün ve ekosistem hizmetlerinin artan önemini vurgulamaktadır. Çalışmada analiz edilen 494 yayında, %72 düzenleyici (su kalitesi, erozyon önleme, iklim düzenleme) ve %43 destekleyici (habitat sağlama) ekosistem hizmetleri ağırlıklı olarak değerlendirilmiş, tedarik ve kültürel hizmetler ise yeterince ele alınmamıştır. Ayrıca, incelenen çalışmalarda istatistiksel analiz, CBS ve model tabanlı yaklaşımlar gibi çeşitli yöntemler kullanılmış olmasına rağmen, standartlaştırılmış değerlendirme yöntemlerinin eksikliği tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, bu çalışma nehir kıyı alanlarında bilinçli karar alma ve planlama konusundaki eksiklikleri vurgulamaktadır. Nehir kıyı bitki örtüsünün korunması, yönetilmesi ve restore edilmesinin su kaynaklarının sürdürülebilirliği, biyoçeşitlilik, insan refahı ve genel ekosistem sağlığı için kritik olduğunu belirtmektedir.
