Effects of ecological restoration on water quality and benthic macroinvertebrates in rural rivers of cold regions: A case study of the Huaide River, Northeast China

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Various human activities can damage the structure of rural rivers ecosystems and reduce their self-purification capacity. In Northeast China, the cold climate also poses serious challenges to river restoration. What types of restoration technology should
