Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
River is not only a course of water, sediment and the nutrients, but also an important ecological corridor or system for riparian plants, aquatic hydrobios, even human beings. In some areas, the unreasonable exploitation and use of water resources, together with climate changes has leaded to the degradation of river ecological system. There exist serval eco-environmental problems such as streamflow decrease, water quality deterioration and riparian zone shrinks. It is an urgent task to effectively restore the impaired river systems and improve their eco-environment. This special issue mainly focuses on river ecological restoration, and it includes the following four sub-topics.
- River riparian zone restoration
- water quality purification and assessment
- river eco-flow and management
- Surface- and ground- water links
