This paper uses bibliometric mapping and network analysis to review decades of research on ecosystem services and life cycle assessment (LCA). The study reveals how these two academic fields evolved to become distinct fields with little interaction despite shared environmental sustainability objectives. In assessing more than 56,000 publications, we identified just 91 LCA studies that integrate biotic ecosystem services in a meaningful way. We further classified these papers based on an ecosystem service standardization system – the Common International Classification for Ecosystem Services (CICES) – and the use of LCA midpoints and endpoints. LCA research has focused on a relatively small number of regulation and maintenance ecosystem services (especially carbon balance), with far less emphasis on provisioning services. Research on cultural services is especially scarce. Land use is a particularly promising area for integrative ecosystem services–LCA research but will require more sophisticated accounting of geographic and temporal variation, as well as the dynamic exchanges of flows between regions. We conclude by illustrating how Geographic Information Science (GIScience) can help address these challenges, enabling much deeper and wider integration of ecosystem service accounting in the LCA field.

生态系统服务和生命周期评估:文献计量学回顾

本文使用文献计量学映射和网络分析来回顾数十年来有关生态系统服务和生命周期评估(LCA)的研究。这项研究揭示了尽管共同的环境可持续性目标,这两个学术领域如何演变成为彼此之间几乎没有相互作用的独特领域。在评估56,000多种出版物时,我们仅确定了91个LCA研究,这些研究以有意义的方式整合了生物生态系统服务。我们基于生态系统服务标准化系统-通用国际生态系统服务分类(CICES)-以及LCA中点和终点的使用对这些论文进行了分类。LCA研究集中在相对较少的法规和维护生态系统服务(尤其是碳平衡)上,而对提供服务的关注则很少。对文化服务的研究尤为匮乏。土地使用是生态系统综合服务(LCA)研究的一个特别有希望的领域,但将需要对地理和时间变化以及区域之间的流量动态交换进行更复杂的计算。最后,我们通过说明地理信息科学(GIScience)如何帮助应对这些挑战,从而使LCA领域中的生态系统服务核算更加深入和广泛地融合。
