Quantifying and mapping land use changes and regulating ecosystem service potentials in a data-scarce peri-urban region in Kenya

Recent scientific developments are advancing to link land use and land cover (LULC) change with ecosystem service (ES) potentials. Such links within peri-urban ecosystems are scanty due to methodological and expertise challenge, and data li...

Spatiotemporal variation of the ecosystem service value in China based on surface area

The assessment of ecological assets is of great significance for protecting and using ecological resources. Traditional methods of ecological assets assessment, which adopt the planar area as the standard, often ignore the impact of the sur...

The impacts of tidal wetland loss and coastal development on storm surge damages to people and property: a Hurricane Ike case-study

Abstract Coastal wetlands protect communities during hurricanes by reducing storm surge flooding and damages. Previous studies have quantified surge reduction benefits of wetlands, but there is less understanding of how the combination of w...

Predicting the distribution and habitat suitability of the smooth-coated otter (Lutrogale perspicillata) in lowland Nepal

Ever increasing anthropogenic pressures and natural threats to freshwater ecosystems are impacting global biodiversity. Otters are an indicator species that have an important role in maintaining the integrity and stability of wetland ecosys...

Coastal wave-energy attenuation by artificial wooden fences deployed for mangrove restoration: an experimental study

By offering natural protection along offshore wetlands, mangroves play a crucial role in providing great ecological and economic benefits to local communities. However, mangroves are currently facing an increasing threat of decline worldwid...

Restoration of the Zoige alpine wetland played a role in the recent reduction in water yield in the Source Region of the Yellow River

Ecological restoration efforts have been actively promoted in the Source Region of the Yellow River (SRYR) since the late 1990s, but their hydrological effects remain poorly understood. This study quantified long-term runoff changes from 19...

Coastal Wetlands

Coastal wetlands are valuable and sensitive environments that are among the most productive yet highly threatened systems in the world [...]...

The avifauna of Ramanathapuram, Tamil Nadu along the Southeast coast of India: waterbird assessments and conservation implications across key sanctuaries and Ramsar sites

Background Wetlands, globally, face significant threats from human activities, and waterbirds, as key indicators of wetland health, are essential to maintaining ecological balance. Any long-term conservation measures should prioritize coord...
