[PMID: 37604102 DOI: 10.1016/j.jenvman.2023.118844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2022] [Revised: 07/01/2023] [Accepted: 08/16/2023] [Indexed: 08/23/2023]
Abstract
Climate change and anthropogenic activities are major influences on the hydrological cycle, further altering river hydrological health. However, the characteristics of the forces in driving the variations of hydrological health at long-short time scales (annual, seasonal, monthly), as well as the potential impacts of these variations on aquatic habitats, remain unclear. In this study, the flow threshold method was introduced to identify the inherent characteristics of river hydrological health degree (RHD) evolution in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River (URYR) through the extreme-point symmetric modal decomposition (ESMD) method and range of variation approach (RVA). The RHD under unregulated conditions was reconstructed to quantify the impacts of anthropogenic activities and climate change. Subsequently, a multifractal model was proposed to establish the relationship between RHD and habitat-weighted usage area (WUA) during the spawning period of the Four Famous Major Carps, aiming to analyze the response mechanisms of habitat conditions to RHD fluctuations. The results showed that the RHD in the URYR exhibited degradation characteristics, experiencing a moderate change with a value of 0.44. Climate change was identified as the dominant factor causing the annual-scale decline in RHD, with an average impact weight of 62.9%. At the annual scale, Anthropogenic activities exacerbate (-3.4), counteract (20.1), and counteract (20.5) the adverse climatic impacts at Yichang, Cuntan, and Zhutuo stations, respectively. Additionally, the effect of human activities during the flood season is slight, with the most favorable and unfavorable impacts occurring in December (50.7) at the Zhutuo station and in October (-27.2) at the Yichang station. Under the influence of driving forces, the multifractal correlation of the RHD-WUA system tended to homogenized as the time window increased, indicating the presence of potential nonlinear dependence, asymmetric fractal characteristics, and positive-to-negative persistence transitions. Therefore, modeling river health considering fish habitat cannot be limited to linear paradigms. The findings provide valuable insights for the management and restoration of aquatic ecosystems.

Zhang J, Fu Y, Peng W, Zhao J, Chen H. Calculation and evaluation of suitable ecological flows for eco-environmental recovery of cascade-developed rivers. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 878:162918. [PMID: 36958567 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.162918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
River cascade development affects the hydrological and habitat characteristics of the region and disrupts the dynamic balance of stable river ecosystems. The most profound impact of river cascade development is on the resident fish species. River ecosystem restoration for maximum river habitat improvement is generally based on water security and environment improvement and effectively embodies the nature-based solutions (NbS) concept of naturalized restoration. Yuanjiang (Y.J.) River is an international river in southwest China seriously affected by cascade development. By determining the response of the river ecosystem and using the key performance indicator method, Yuanjiang carp (Cyprinus carpio rubrofuscus) and red giant catfish (Bagarius rutilus) were identified as the key species in the main stream of the Y.J. River., and the ecological effects of river cascade development on them were studied by applying two-dimensional hydrodynamic physical habitat simulation and multi-objective ecological scheduling models. Based on the calculation results for ecological operation optimization of cascade reservoirs, an improved progressive optimality algorithm was used to calculate the ecological flows required to maintain the stability of the river ecosystem. With the increasing extent of cascade development in the river, important indicators, such as the intra-annual, extreme, high, and low flows have changed significantly, and the hydrological characteristics of the main stream have changed rapidly and comprehensively. Habitat suitability curves were used to determine the appropriate water depth and delineate the weighted usable area required for the spawning, nursing, and growing periods of the key fish species. The suitable ecological flows required for the three life-cycle stages of the C. carpio rubrofuscus accounted for 34, 45, and 62 %, respectively, of the multi-year mean natural water inflow at the Qiaotou (Q.T.) cascade, whereas those required for the three respective periods of B. rutilus accounted for 47, 98, and 27 %, respectively, of the multi-year mean natural water inflow at the Madushan (M.D·S.) cascade. Considering the physiological lifecycle demands of the indicator/key fish species and the upper limit of water resources development and utilization in the key river section, the ecological flow precipitation frequency in the Q.T.-Luodie (Q.T.-L.D.) and M.D·S.-Xinjie (M.D·S.-X.J.) sections (currently at 25, 50, and 75 %, respectively) can be increased to 100 % under optimal operating conditions (cascade hydropower station optimal operation). After implementing the multi-objective ecological operation at the Y.J. River main-stream cascade reservoirs, the suitable habitat area for C. carpio rubrofuscus and B. rutilus increased significantly (>10 % and 15 %, respectively). In general, the NbS-based ecological flow calculation method for cascade-developed rivers has a wide range of applications, which can be useful for the eco-environment restoration of rivers and improving the living habitats of waterway organisms.

River ecological flow early warning forecasting using baseflow separation and machine learning in the Jiaojiang River Basin, Southeast China. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 882:163571. [PMID: 37087001 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.163571] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Ecological flow early warning is crucial for the rational management of watershed water resources. However, determining of accurate ecological flow threshold and choosing the appropriate forecasting model are challenging tasks. In this study, we initially developed a baseflow separation and Tennant method-based technique for calculating ecological river flow. Then an ecological flow early warning model was created using the machine learning technique based on distributed gradient enhancement framework (LightGBM). Finally, we utilized the framework of Shapley Additive Planning (SHAP) to explain how various hydrometeorological factors affect the variations in ecological flow conditions. The Jiaojiang River basin in southeast China is selected as the study area, and the hydrological stations in upstream of Baizhiao (BZA) and Shaduan (SD) are chosen for key analysis. The results of these applications show that the monthly baseflow frequency of the river ecological flow conditions of the two stations in the dry season is 20 % (7.49 m3/s) and 30 % (4.79 m3/s), respectively. The ecological flow level early warning forecasting accuracy is close to 90 % in the BZA and SD stations during dry and wet seasons. The variations of ecological flow are most affected by evaporation and base flow index. The results of this study can serve as a strong basis for the effective allocation and utilization of locally available water resources.

Multifunctional resilience of river health to human service demand in an alluvial quarried reach: a comparison amongst fuzzy logic, entropy, and AHP-based MCDM models.

Abstract
Riverine ecosystem services to human beings are dynamically evaluated by harmonic relationships; however, over growing human service demands (HSDs) are leading to deteriorate the river health resilience. In this study, an assessment index system of river health involving pressure-state-response (PSR) based on twenty indicators of riparian, channel geomorphic, hydroecological, and social attributes was developed to detect the multifunctional reliability and resilience of river system integrity for HSDs at upper (US), middle (MS), and lower segments (LS) of Kangsabati River using fuzzy logic, analytical hierarchical process (AHP), and entropy weight-based multi-criteria decision matrix (MCDM) methods. Borda integrating MCDM results revealed that overall indicator performance is high health score in US (77), medium score in MS (69), but mostly unhealthy score in LS (34); thus, entropy-MCDM models give highest rank to US, medium rank to MS, and least rank to LS, while AHP and fuzzy MCDM models assigned as high priority rank to MS, medium rank to US, and least rank to LS, respectively. According to model validation performances, entropy-MCDM models (RMSE < 2.48) are rationalized to the harmonic relationship of riverine system, whereas fuzzy and AHP-MCDM models (RMSE < 2.79) are signified to HSDs, and these results are closer to real problems. With the acceptability of AHP-MCDM models through the percentage change (73.89%) and intensity change (17.16) assessment, it points that over HSDs are crucial factors for river health degradation. Moreover, final outcome of the present research helps to find out the sick river health sites for ecological restoration.

Abstract
Rivers are beneficial to humans due to their multiple functions. However, human meddling substantially degrades the functions of rivers and constitutes a threat to river health. Therefore, it is vital to assess and maintain river function. This study used the Xiaoqing River in Shandong Province, China, as a case study and established a multilayered multifunctional river evaluation indicator system consisting of environmental function, ecological function, social function, and economic function. The weights of indicators were calculated using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the entropy method. Furthermore, a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model based on the Cauchy distribution function was developed to assess the operation status of each function in each river segment. The results of the indicator and criterion layers in different river sections varied. The multifunctionality of the river decreased from upstream to downstream. The Jinan section was the most multifunctional, followed by the Binzhou, Zibo, and Dongying sections, and finally the Weifang section. Through additional analysis, this study determined the constraint indicators and functions of each river section. Overall, the results reveal that the idea of a "multifunctional river" can advance the theoretical understanding of a river's function, and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model is demonstrated to provide fresh perspectives for evaluating river function.

Abstract
Lake health assessment (LHA), a powerful tool for lake ecological protection, provides the foundation for sustainable water environment management. However, existing methods have not yet considered the effects of fuzziness and randomness on LHA. In addition, most of the current studies on LHA focus on the plain areas, lack of quantitative studies in mountain areas, such as the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The Pythagorean fuzzy cloud (PFC) integration algorithm drawing on the advantages of Pythagorean fuzzy sets (PFS) and cloud model was proposed. A novel hybrid decision-making framework combining PFC integration algorithm and TOPSIS model was developed to determine the lake health levels with fuzziness and randomness. An indicator system incorporating ecosystem integrity (physical habitat, water quantity and quality, aquatic life) and non-ecological performance (social services) was established. To comprehensively investigate the lake health level in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, the Nam Co was selected as study area. Our results confirm that the developed framework in this study can overcome the shortcomings of existing methods and provide a more effective approach for LHA with fuzziness and randomness. In Nam Co, the non-ecological performance was significantly better than the ecosystem integrity. Health levels exhibited a remarkable spatial variation influenced by tourism and grazing, with decreasing health status from the northwestern to southeastern Nam Co. Approximately 85% of the sampling sites were at excellent or healthy levels, 15% were subhealthy, and no sampling sites were unhealthy and sick. Our results highlight that tourism has affected health levels at Nam Co, and effective measures are needed to minimize the impact in ecological fragile areas.

Abstract
Acceleration urbanization and industrialization has resulted in challenges such as river ecosystem degradation and water scarcity that have hindered sustainable development in China. Healthy rivers provide ecosystem services that improve human well-being. The Happy River Index (HRI) integrates trends in river health and human well-being. This study aimed to establish an HRI assessment framework. The assessment framework was applied to the Yellow River, China at three spatial scales in which the analytic hierarchy process (AHP)-entropy weight and single index quantification-multiple indices syntheses-poly-criteria integration (SMI-P) methods were utilized. Limiting factors were diagnosed by the obstacle degree model and approaches to improve the HRI in regions along the Yellow River are suggested. The results showed that: (1) the overall HRI of the Yellow River was relatively low, with some differences among different regions; (2) the HRI for the upper, middle, and lower reaches of the Yellow River showed a decreasing trend from 0.77 to 0.65; (3) Sichuan had the highest HRI at the regional scale, followed by Gansu and Qinghai, whereas Inner Mongolia had the lowest; (4) scarcity of water resources and the fragility of the ecological environment were the two dominant factors restricting the improvement of the HRI in regions along the Yellow River. The results of this study can provide a valuable reference for protection of river health and improvement of human well-being in China.

Abstract
We estimated the performance of river fish habitat evaluation using width-to-depth ratio (WDR) in comparison with eco-environmental diversity (EED) to propose an inexpensive and easy-to-use habitat evaluation procedure, which is applicable to small river construction works. WDR calculation costs less than that of EED. For verification, 25 stations in eight rivers were selected and fish were captured using electrofishing. pH, electrical conductivity, turbidity, dissolved oxygen (DO), water temperature, fraction of forest, farmland, and residential area in each basin were measured to examine possible influence of water quality. Results show that there is no major water quality issue in the target rivers. Although fish habitat is classified as good when WDR is higher than 6, it cannot be evaluated by WDR when it is lower than 6. EED has positive relationship with fish habitat for any WDR value. Thus, if a river geometry design in a river work results in WDR higher than 6, no measures need to be taken regarding fish habitat condition; however, if it is less than 6, it is necessary to examine whether the construction work lowers the EED or not.

Abstract
Under the dual influences of high-intensity anthropogenic activity and climate change, wetland hydrologic connectivity (HC) has decreased significantly, resulting in the severe fragmentation of wetlands, a decrease in wetland area, and a degradation of hydrological functions, resulting in a worsening disaster response to floods and droughts. Dynamic changes in wetland HC are affected by a variety of factors. Many degraded wetlands have undergone measures to restore HC. Recovery can improve the HC pattern of degraded wetlands. Based on the knowledge of practitioners and a review of the literature, it was found that recovery measures can be divided into structural recovery and functional recovery according to the specific recovery objectives. However, the current recovery method lacks a holistic analysis of the HC pattern. To this end, we propose a hydrologic network-water balance-based HC recovery and management framework that overcomes the limitations of single-drive-factor repair and local repair effects.
