Thick roots and less microaggregates improve hydrological connectivity

Chemosphere, 2021
Due to human activity and global climate change, the Yellow River Delta, the youngest delta wetland in China, is suffering serious degradation. The study of hydrological connection provides new perspectives and technical support for the protection and restoration of delta wetlands. To quantify the interaction between the hydrological connection and the

A new framework combining hydrological connectivity metrics and morphological spatial pattern analysis for the hydrological connectivity evaluation of wetlands

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, 2022
Abstract The quantitative evaluation of wetland hydrological connectivity is essential to the hydrological connectivity restoration-oriented ecological conservation and environmental management of wetlands. We proposed a framework to evaluate wetland hydrological connectivity with a combination of hydrological connectivity metrics and ...

Connectivity in hydrology and sediment dynamics

Land Degradation & Development, 2020
AbstractConnectivity has emerged as a significant conceptual framework for understanding the transfer of surface water and sediment through landscapes. The concept has been widely adopted in the field of catchment hydrology but has also been valuable to investigate rates of soil erosion by water and sediment export across landscapes.

Directional connectivity in hydrology and ecology

Ecological Applications, 2012
Quantifying hydrologic and ecological connectivity has contributed to understanding transport and dispersal processes and assessing ecosystem degradation or restoration potential. However, there has been little synthesis across disciplines. The growing field of ecohydrology and recent recognition that loss of hydrologic connectivity is leading to a ...

Hydrological connectivity assessment based on solute penetration

Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment, 2020
Wetlands are sensitive, easily disturbed, and globally important ecosystems which face lots of threats, such as global climate change and local human activities. Those might result in the degradation of wetlands. The relationship between hydrological connectivity and the degradation of wetlands has gained prominence among researchers as a simple way to

Connectivity and hydrological efficiency dynamics at active volcanoes, Mexico

Science of The Total Environment, 2020
Connectivity is an emergent property that describes how complex topography favors or impedes sediment transfer processes. In active volcanic areas, high connectivity may lead to extremely efficient processes, such as lahars. The aim of the present study is to examine the behavior (activation-deactivation) of sub-basins affected by volcanic and ...

Macrobenthos Diversity Response to Hydrological Connectivity Gradient

Wetlands, 2014
The abundant riparian wetlands supported by the complex river network in Pearl River Delta (PRD) are under an intensely anthropogenic disturbance that threatens the local ecological environment. This paper examined the benthic invertebrate diversity and biomass within the Pearl River through a field study.

Pattern‐process relationships in surface hydrology: hydrological connectivity expressed in landscape metrics

Hydrological Processes, 2011
AbstractThe degree of hydrological connectivity is mainly determined by the spatial organisation of heterogeneity. A meaningful and aggregate abstraction of spatial patterns is one of the promising means to gain fundamental insights into this complex interaction and can, moreover, be used as a tool to acquire a profound understanding of the major ...
