Abstract：With accelerated urbanization and climate change,urban rainstorm issues have become increasingly severe.Based on CiteSpace knowledge mapping technology,literature related"urban rainstorm"from the CNKI database(2001-2024)were visualization analysis.The results indicated:①The growth of research output showed significant correlation with policy initiatives and societal attention;②Research hotspots had evolved from early rainwater utilization and urban flood control to current focuses on Sponge City development,low-impact development(LID),and multidimensional management approaches;③The research frontier was shifting toward interdisciplinary approaches for building urban resilience.Future research should prioritize integrated rainstorm management,optimization of stormwater modeling accuracy,and scientific configuration of storage spaces.
