Abstract. Addressing the sustainability challenges that humanity is facing in Anthropocene requires coupling of human and natural systems, rather than their separate treatment. To help understand dynamics a coupled system (CHANS) support design policies measures promote sustainability, we propose conceptual cascade framework “pattern–process–service–sustainability”, which characterized by landscape patterns ecological processes, linking processes to ecosystem services, promoting...
Human regulations are involved in the hydrogeomorphic processes of silt-laden rivers with unprecedented intensity, and further, affect structures functions riverine social-ecosystem. The braided reach (BR) lower Yellow River is one world's most sediment-rich dynamic rivers. In recent twenty years, Xiaolangdi Reservoir constructed upstream growing river training works have deeply changed conditions BR, however, behaviors fluvial system under multiple human influences their mechanisms remain...
Abstract Water governance determines “who gets water, when, and how” in most large river basins. Shifts water regimes from natural to social‐ecological or “hydrosocial” carry profound implications for human wellbeing; identifying regime changes is critical navigating transitions guiding sustainability. We characterized along with the three main aspects—stress, purpose, allocation—to develop a quantitative integrated index (IWGI) at basin scale. Applying IWGI rapidly changing Yellow River...
The rapid expansion of dam construction highlights the need to understand impact human regulation on river ecosystems and surrounding communities. This study focuses Lower Yellow River Basin, a region severely affected by water scarcity, flooding risks, low ecological resilience. Xiaolangdi Reservoir, completed in 1999, was designed address these challenges. Through comprehensive analysis reservoir’s effects downstream hydrology, geomorphology, ecology, activities, we evaluate its...
Abstract. Addressing the sustainability challenges facing humanity in Anthropocene requires coupling of human and natural systems, rather than their separate treatment. To understand dynamics a coupled system (CHANS) promote its sustainability, we proposed conceptual cascade framework “Pattern-Process-Service-Sustainability”. The use this was systematically illustrated by review CHANS research experiences China’s Loess Plateau (LP) terms landscape patterns ecological processes, linking...
