Greenhouse gas emissions from hydropower reservoirs: emission processes and management approaches (2024)
Journal Article

Hydropower reservoirs, as vital inland waters bodies of anthropogenic origin, exhibit distinct characteristics from natural waters, thereby garnering research interest in the quantification and mapping of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In this revie... Read More about Greenhouse gas emissions from hydropower reservoirs: emission processes and management approaches.

Harnessing the runoff reduction potential of urban bioswales as an adaptation response to climate change (2024)
Journal Article

Nature-based solutions (NbS), including China's Sponge City Program (SCP), can address the challenges urban communities face due to surface runoff and flooding. The current capacity of SCP facilities in urban environments falls short of meeting the d...

Material flow analysis of chemical additives in plastics: A critical review (2024)
Journal Article

The exponential growth in plastic production and usage has escalated global concerns about plastic pollution, particularly regarding harmful chemical additives. Understanding the anthropogenic cycles of these additives is the prerequisite to developi... Read More about Material flow analysis of chemical additives in plastics: A critical review.

Accounting for the power of nature: Using flume and field studies to compare the capacities of bio-energy and fluvial energy to move surficial gravels (2024)
Journal Article

River channels, riparian and floodplain forms and dynamics are all influenced strongly by biological processes. However, the influence of macroinvertebrates on entrainment and transport of river sediments remains poorly understood. We use an energy-b...

Pesticide-related risks embodied in global soybean trade (2024)
Journal Article

Pesticides may help safeguard food security but endanger the local ecosystem and farmer health. The globalization of the food trade is masking such impacts by separating production from consumption, and its effects on pesticide use and their related...

Reconnecting a stream channel to its floodplain: implications for benthic diatoms and macroinvertebrate trophic structure (2024)
Journal Article

Streams systems draining upland landscapes provide valuable ecosystem services, but they are vulnerable to incision and channelization caused by anthropogenic disturbance. Restoring a degraded stream to its pre‐disturbance condition by reconnecting t...

Rising water temperature in rivers: Ecological impacts and future resilience (2024)
Journal Article

Rising water temperatures in rivers due to climate change are already having observable impacts on river ecosystems. Warming water has both direct and indirect impacts on aquatic life, and further aggravates pervasive issues such as eutrophication, p...

Food security in climatic extremes: Challenges and opportunities for China (2024)
Journal Article

Droughts and floods in 2022 and 2023 have compounded stress on Chinese food security. China’s northeast region is a major grain-producing powerhouse, but recent climatic extremes combined with EI Niño effects have exposed vulnerabilities in its agric...
