Urbanization is one of the most aggressive forms land transformation, leading to negative impacts on surrounding aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. In terms hydrology, urbanization compromises ability natural landscape absorb, store, slowly release water. Watershed management strategies that strategically utilize spatial patterns cover (e.g., wetlands or forests) have shown initial promise mitigate flash flood events through enhancement hydrologic mechanisms. The main objective this work...

The dilemma of managing the trade-off between immediate human needs and maintaining ability Earth to provide ecosystem services is considered be one greatest challenges this century. Many management strategies have applied service concept address challenge, which incorporates land management, policy, economic decisions achieve overall health. intent research was improve such through an increased understanding relationship urban stormwater control measures (SCMs) freshwater provision, erosion...

Postsecondary and informal professional educational opportunities have increasingly become an important mode of supporting the understanding, dissemination, application ecosystem services (ES). The development activities group characteristics (e.g. a shared vocabulary, common objectives, dedication time) together with teaching education are instrumental for institutionalization new ideas, concepts, disciplines in society. Integrating ES into postsecondary can help us to understand complex...

<abstract> <b><sc>Abstract.</sc></b> Increasing concerns about climate change has sparked research and discussion the long-term, detrimental impacts of human activity on environment. The benefits that humans obtain from ecosystems, known as ecosystem services, have changed more in past fifty years than any other comparable period history. One largest challenges this century will be to establish a balance between providing for immediate needs maintaining long-term ability Earth provide...

Highlights Future water security in the U.S. Great Plains is threated by a drying trend average annual soil moisture. Agricultural management will become increasingly challenging due to declines surface storage. Alternative strategies are needed meet future environmental and anthropogenic demand. Abstract . Spatiotemporal trends moisture of considerable importance within food-energy-water nexus. Soil dictates productivity ecosystems, plays major role land-atmosphere interactions, influences...

Wetlands are essential habitat for waterbirds because they serve as breeding and roosting areas.Waterbirds useful indicators of wetland ecological health the ecosystem function but have been under pressure due to climate anthropogenic drivers.Colonial waterbird has found strongly correlated flooding inundation regime (flood duration timing).In this study we applied WATHNET5 model, a simulation model based on linear programming, estimate bird events by emulating regimes.The objective is...
