Wetlands are often vital physical and social components of a country’s natural capital, as well providers ecosystem services to local national communities. We performed network analysis prioritize Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets for sustainable development in iconic wetlands wetlandscapes around the world. The was based on information perceptions 45 worldwide by 49 wetland researchers Global Wetland Ecohydrological Network (GWEN). identified three 2030 Agenda high priority across...
Abstract The availability of water is a growing concern for flooded rice production. As such, several water-saving irrigation practices have been developed to reduce requirements. Alternate wetting and drying mid-season drainage shown potentially requirements while maintaining yields when compared continuous flooding. With the removal permanently anaerobic conditions during season, can also CO 2 equivalent (CO 2eq ) emissions, helping impact greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. However, long-term...
Improving water quality at the catchment scale proves difficult as indicated by shifting deadlines of Water Framework Directive for achieving good chemical and ecological status in European freshwaters. Low-hanging fruits reducing point sources pollution have already been targeted most catchments, with more challenging persistent diffuse jeopardising widespread improvements. Diffuse originates from a range anthropogenic activities such agriculture, forestry mining leads to gradual...
Agricultural drainage systems are essential for managing water levels in farmland, yet they often prioritize conveyance efficiency over ecological function, contributing to biodiversity loss and quality degradation. Remediation measures, such as two-stage ditches, re-meandering, bank regrading, typically aimed at reducing sediment nutrient loads, but frequently neglect habitat complexity biodiversity. This study investigates how these remediation practices influence macroinvertebrate...
Abstract Assessments of ecosystem service and function losses wetlandscapes (i.e., wetlands their hydrological catchments) suffer from knowledge gaps regarding impacts ongoing hydro-climatic change. This study investigates changes during 1976–2015 in 25 distributed across the world’s tropical, arid, temperate cold climate zones. Results show that were subject to precipitation (P) temperature (T) consistent with mean over land area. However, arid experienced higher T increases than respective...
Drawing on collective experience from ten collaborative research projects focused the Global South, we identify three major challenges that impede translation of sustainability and resilience into better-informed choices by individuals policy-makers in turn can support transformation to a sustainable future. The comprise: (i) converting knowledge produced during successful application; (ii) scaling up time when are short-term potential impacts long-term; (iii) across space, local sites...
Abstract Under persistent eutrophication of European water bodies and a changing climate, there is an increasing need to evaluate best‐management practices for reducing nutrient losses from agricultural catchments. In this study, we set up daily discharge quality model in Hydrological Predictions the Environment two catchments representative common cropping systems Europe's humid continental regions forecast impacts future climate trajectories on loads. The predicted slight increase...
Abstract. Geography and associated hydrological, hydroclimate land-use conditions their changes determine the states dynamics of wetlands ecosystem services. The influences these controls are not limited to just local scale each individual wetland but extend over larger landscape areas that integrate multiple total hydrological catchment – wetlandscape. However, data knowledge entire wetlandscapes still scarce, limiting capacity accurately understand manage critical ecosystems services under...
Abstract There is growing awareness of the potential value agricultural land for climate change mitigation. In Sweden, cropland areas have decreased by approximately 30% over recent decades, creating opportunities these former croplands to be managed mitigation increasing soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks. One land‐use conversion grazed grasslands, but long‐term effect such in management not well understood and likely varies with type site‐specific conditions. Through sampling mineral...
The increasing intensification of aquaculture systems requires the development strategies to reduce their environmental impacts such as pollution caused by discharge nutrient rich sediments into local water bodies. Recycling fish pond (FPS) fertilizer has been proposed a possible solution that may also reliance on synthetic fertilizers. With case study in Mekong Delta, Vietnam, we determined suitable mixtures striped catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) sediment (PPS) and locally sourced...
Climate change is expected to significantly deteriorate water quality in heavily managed agricultural landscapes, however, the exact mechanisms of these impacts are unknown. In this study we adopted a modelling approach predict multiple effects climate on hydrological and biogeochemical responses for dominant solutes particulates two agriculture-dominated temperate headwater catchments. We used climatic projections from three models simulate future flows, mobilisation delivery particulates....
The preservation of soils which provide many important services to society is a pressing global issue. This particularly the case in countries like Tanzania, will experience rapid population growth over coming decades. country also currently experiencing land-use change and increasing intensification its agricultural systems ensure sufficient food production. However, little known regarding what long term effects this land use be, especially concerning soil quality. Therefore, we assessed...
Rapid intensification of Vietnamese rice production has had a positive effect on the nation's food and economy. However, sustainability intensive is increasingly being questioned within Vietnam, particularly in major agricultural provinces such as An Giang. The construction high dykes this province, which allow for complete regulation water onto fields, enabled farmers to grow up three crops per year. profitability producing rapidly decreasing increase their use chemical fertilizer inputs...

Abstract The efficiency of fertilizer conversion to harvestable products is often low in annual crops such that large amounts nutrients are lost from fields with negative consequences for the environment. Focusing on nitrogen (N) use (NUE: ratio N harvested over sum all inputs), we propose hydrological controls can explain variations NUE, because water mediates both uptake by plants and leaching. We assess these at catchment scale, which balance be constrained precipitation runoff data NUE...
Rice paddy soils have high organic carbon (OC) storage potential, but predicting OC stocks in these is difficult due to the complex stabilization mechanisms under fluctuating redox conditions. Especially temperate climates, remain understudied and comparisons natural vegetation are scarce. Semi-natural forests could similar or higher inputs than rice paddies, latter mineralization anoxic conditions interactions between redox-sensitive minerals (in particular Fe oxyhydroxides, hereafter...
Climate change and agricultural intensification are placing enormous pressure on soil to provide essential services, from water storage nutrient provision carbon sequestration. Indeed, storing in systems is proposed as an effective climate mitigation approach. Yet, comes often at a cost terms of consumed—water used either increase productivity inputs soil, or create conditions the that promote storage. These linkages perhaps most evident rice paddy systems.Rice – staple...
Agricultural drainage ditches are critical for the removal of excess water from fields. Their traditional trapezoidal shape is effective this purpose, while also minimizing their footprint and being easy to maintain. However, these act as transport pathways phosphorus nitrogen. Moreover, steep banks susceptible erosion during high flows, which can be a source additional sediment phosphorous mobilisation in river systems.  Within Sweden, 60% bodies classified having poor chemical...

Especially temperate climate, interactions remain understudied comparison to under natural vegetation scarce. Semi-natural forests higher inputs than rice paddies, the latter anoxic conditions between redox-sensitive minerals (in particular Fe...
