Resumé :  Description of the subject. Coastal lagoons, vital for human wellbeing, are highly threatened ecosystems. Their ecosystem services (ES) have recently gained scientific and policy attention.
Objective. This study aims to identify global trends in scientific research on coastal lagoon ecosystem services (CLES) over time.
Method. Publications from 1999 to 2022 were aggregated from the Scopus database. A bibliometric analysis of 304 documents was conducted using the Bibliometrix package in R Studio.
Results. Analysis revealed an increasing trend in both publications and citations related to CLES from 1999 to 2022. Schernewski G. and Lillebø A. were the most published authors, while Pérez-Ruzafa A. and Newton A. were the most cited. "Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science" was a key journal, with Newton et al. (2014) as the most cited document. Europe was the most productive region, and the USA led in CLES publications. Keywords like ecosystem services, coastal lagoons, and climate change were prominent. Thematic evolution showed coastal lagoons as a central theme across all periods.
Conclusion. Future CLES research should focus on the impacts of land use and cover changes, local community perceptions, and participatory mapping of ecosystem services.
