An imbalance between the supply and demand of ecosystem services can cause ecological problems. By determining the spatiotemporal changes in the supply and demand and the factors underlying these changes, the ecosystem service supply in river basins...

Based on vegetation-soil nutrient monitoring data under different precipitation conditions, this study investigated the impact of precipitation changes on the ecological restoration process of disturbed slopes. Precipitation change, to a certain exte...

The risk assessment of water environments provides important references for water environment risk management. In this paper, the water environment risk of the upper rivers of the Baiyangdian Lake is assessed, considering both cumulative and sudden e...

Forest hydrology, as a discipline, was designed to address fundamental questions regarding the impact of deforestation on floods and droughts [...]

The water conservation function plays a vital role in the land–water cycle. As the “Chinese water tower”, the headwaters of the Yellow River are of great significance to the safety of the Yellow River basin and even the global ecosy...

As the centerpiece of ecosystems and human societies, river basins are complex social–ecological systems (SESs) that depend on the natural flow regime and the hydrologic variability to adapt to changes and absorb disturbances. Anthropogenic and...

According to the vertical section monitoring data of Lake Lugu water temperature (WT), electrical conductivity (EC), dissolved oxygen (DO), pH and chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) parameters in January (winter), April (spring), July (summer), and October (autum...

What do we know about the Adriatic Sea and the state of its health [...]

The constant reuse of waters in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) together with the continuous addition of organic matter from fish degradation components, faeces and non-consumed feed promote the accumulation of dissolved organic matter (DOM),...

Transpiration is fundamental to the understanding of the ecophysiology of planted forests in arid ecosystems, and it is one of the most uncertain components in the ecosystem water balance. The objective of this study was to quantify differences in wh...
