Fluvial sediment fluxes are reshaping coastal water colour, geomorphology, and ecological processes, yet schemes based on single-river loads or shoreline change may miss land-sea responses. We combine SSC records from 19 river stations across nine Chinese basins (2004-2024) with MODIS reflectance to characterize clearing, brightening, regional...

Changes in land use over space and time are key drivers of water pollution. However, current studies on landuse–water-quality relationships in small watersheds are insufficient to support regional development. Comparative research across large-scale watersheds can better inform water environmental protection, yet such studies remain limited. This...

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...

Water cycle resilience represents a vital part of sustainable water resources management for a region with severe water vulnerability issues. However, despite their importance, a current lack of systematic monitoring mechanisms has contributed to an insufficient grasp of their distribution in relation to water resources management practices, as...

Dynamic monitoring of reservoir water storage in arid areas is important for water resources assessment, hydroelectric power generation and agricultural irrigation. However, existing reservoir water calculation methods often rely on in-situ measurements, which limits their application in data scarce regionals and for regional scale analyses. Hence...

Despite being a limited resource, pollution, poor management, and other drivers like climate change make available water unsuitable and insufficient for human consumption and ecosystem maintenance. Therefore, a transdisciplinary approach is needed for managing this precious resource. The overall aim of this paper is to address water inequalities...

Study region: Bosten Lake (Xinjiang, China). Study focus: This paper mainly focuses on quantifying changes in water storage of Bosten Lake using multi-mission satellite data. From Landsat images, we firstly extracted the lake area changes between 2003 and 2022 with the help of the modified normalized difference water index (MNDWI); Secondly, we...

While the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) are broadly framed with 17 goals, the goals and their targets inherently connect with each other forming a complex system. Actions supporting one goal may influence progress in other goals, either positively (synergies) or negatively (trade-offs). Effective managing the synergies and trade-offs is a...

The Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) has launched an interactive online tool to assess how the observed and projected changes in river basins relate to various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their associated targets, from both a spatial and temporal perspective. The Interactive SDG Tool for River Basins is the outcome...
