In this paper, we used Meta-analysis to systematically assess the ecological status of organic carbon pollutants in China's aquatic environments between 1980 and 2024. The study was based on relevant literature from the China Knowledge Network (CNKI) and Web of Science (WOS) databases, focusing on the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of persistent organic pollutants (POPs), perfluorinated compounds (PFCs), plastic particles (MPs), pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Through Meta-analysis, this paper integrates a large amount of research data to reveal the distribution patterns of these pollutants in Chinese waters and their impacts on the ecological environment. The results show that the problem of organic carbon pollution in Chinese waters is becoming more and more serious, especially in the Yangtze and Pearl River basins. This paper not only provides a scientific basis for a comprehensive understanding of the current status of organic carbon pollution in Chinese waters, but also provides an important reference for the development of targeted pollution management strategies.
