Groundwater provides the principal irrigation lifeline for the semi-arid reaches of the Malwa Region of Northwestern India, yet its long-term sustainability remains increasingly uncertain. Using 25 years (2000–2024) of Central Ground Water Board (CGWB) monitoring-well data, this study mapped annual pre- and post-monsoon groundwater levels and...

Coastal wetlands serve as vital ecological buffer zones between marine and terrestrial systems, performing crucial roles in the protection of coastal erosion, wave and tsunami protection, and maintaining ecological functions. However, these important wetlands are increasingly being destroyed and incessantly threatened by human activities. The...

Study Region: The Ebinur Lake Watershed, located in Northwest China, serves as a crucial ecological barrier for the region. Study Focus: Over the past two decades, Ebinur Lake and its surrounding marshes have experienced a significant loss of water area due to excessive human exploitation and encroachment, resulting in severe ecological degradation...

Climate change and river flow alterations in the Mekong River have significantly exacerbated drought conditions in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD). Understanding the temporal dynamics and propagation mechanisms of drought, coupled with the compounded impacts of human activities, is crucial. This study analyzed meteorological (1992–2021) and...

Water insecurity, intensified by climate change, environmental degradation, and unsustainable resource management, poses a significant threat to human well-being in coastal regions. This study examines the interrelationships among water governance, household well-being, and water security in southwestern Bangladesh. Using a multistage sampling...

Countries at different stages of economic development face distinct challenges and opportunities in the transformation towards sustainability goals. High-income countries (HICs) are well-positioned to influence multilevel and multilateral governance, macroeconomic and fiscal policy to support sustainable financing in the global economic transition...

Urban wetlands provide vital ecosystem services such as habitat provision, water purification, flood regulation, climate regulation, food provision, and recreation. However, rapid urban expansion has placed tremendous pressure on urban wetland environments, leading to their shrinkage. East Kolkata Wetland (EKW), a Ramsar site near urban area noted...

Groundwater contamination has become a critical global challenge due to population growth, industrialization and climate variability, while in India it is further intensified by urbanization, over-extraction and heavy metal pollution. Accurate prediction of water quality is critical for the sustainable groundwater management. This research used...

Understanding regional hydroclimatic patterns is essential for managing water resources and ensuring agricultural sustainability in rain-fed areas under changing climate conditions. The intensifying effects of climate change on rain-fed agriculture in India necessitate a comprehensive understanding of the precipitation dynamics and groundwater...

In Vietnam, where domestic wastewater significantly contributes to water pollution, innovative treatment solutions are urgently needed. This study assesses the effectiveness of subsurface horizontal flow constructed wetlands (CWs) for decentralized domestic wastewater treatment, focusing on systems planted with Napier grass (Pennisetum purpureum)...
