Abstract:

The threat of wetland degradation to human activities because of biodiversity loss, disturbances in hydrological cycles, and loss of ecosystem services, including climate change, urbanization, and anthropogenic activities, calls for a more sustainable strategy for restoring degraded wetlands. This paper addresses the biodiversity and hydrological balance in such wetlands for their restoration. This study employs an ecological and hydrological methodology and an integrated socio-economic approach to develop the framework. Techniques include native vegetation restoration, invasive species manage

Abstract:

Wetlands are crucial for sustainable development, and the evaluation of their GEP is a key focus for governments and scientists. This study created a dynamic accounting model for wetland GEP and assessed the GEP of 39 wetlands in the middle reaches of the Yellow River in Ningxia province. The results indicate that Ningxia province’s wetlands have an average annual GEP of CNY 5.24 billion. Haba wetland contributes the most at 0.52, while Qingtongxia, Sha, and Tenggeli wetlands follow with 0.12, 0.04, and 0.03, respectively. Climate regulation is the most valuable function at 38.24%, with specie

Abstract:

Ecosystem services are crucial for understanding the interactions between human societies and natural environments. Wetlands, as vital natural assets, provide essential services on both local and regional scales and play a significant role in global biogeochemical and hydrological cycles despite their dispersed nature. The concept of "wise use of wetlands" originated from the 1971 Ramsar Convention, emphasizing sustainable management practices. However, wetlands worldwide continue to face severe decline in both area and quality, with estimates suggesting that 30–90% of global wetlands have bee

Clarifying the response of wetland changes to climate change can improve the scientific conservation and utilization capabilities of wetland ecosystems, which is vital for their sustainable development. In this study, the spatial distribution and area changes of the different types of wetlands in the Yellow-River-Source National Park (YRSNP) were obtained using the object-based classification method for the years 2000, 2010, and 2020. The relationship between wetland change and climate factors was investigated by combining grey relation analysis and correlation analysis. The response of wetlan

Abstract:

Wetlands are recognized as some of the most productive and ecologically significant ecosystems on Earth. Serving as critical habitats for a vast range of species—from migratory birds and fish to amphibians and unique aquatic plants—wetlands also supply essential ecosystem services, including water purification, flood regulation, nutrient cycling, and carbon sequestration. Despite this importance, wetlands face extensive threats, ranging from unplanned urbanization and agricultural expansion to pollution and climate change. These pressures lead to habitat fragmentation, declining water quality,

During the 1990 flood, 1.73 million ha of wetlands, or 12.5% of the land surface of the Paroo and Warrego River catchments, were flooded. Flooded wetland area in the respective catchments was 781 330 ha and 890 534 ha. Most of the wetland area (97%) was floodplain, with 37 f

The world has an estimated 7 to 9 million km2 of wetlands which can be defined through their hydrology, physiochemical environment, and biota. Many human cultures have lived in harmony with wetland environments for centuries. Many others have not, resulting in drainage or severe impact of wetlands throughout the world. Conservation of wetlands needs to be a priority for the cultural and ecological values they provide. But a more optimistic note is that large-scale restoration and re-creation of wetlands and riverine systems is beginning to happen throughout the world through ecological enginee
