Conserving and managing global natural capital requires an understanding of the complexity flows ecosystem services across geographic boundaries. Failing to understand incorporate these into national international assessments leads incomplete potentially skewed conclusions, impairing society’s ability identify sustainable management policy choices. In this paper, we synthesise existing knowledge develop a conceptual framework for analysing interregional service flows. We types such flows,...
Despite a growing number of national-scale ecosystem service (ES) assessments, few studies consider the impacts ES use and consumption beyond national or regional boundaries. Interregional flows – services "imported" from "exported" to other countries are rarely analyzed their importance for global sustainability is little known. Here, we provide first multi-ES quantification nation's abroad. We focus on that benefit population in Germany but supplied outside German territory. employ...
Peatlands perform important ecosystem functions, such as carbon storage and nutrient retention, which are affected, among other factors, by vegetation peat decomposition. The availability of silicon (Si) in peatlands differs strongly, ranging from <1 to >25 mg L-1. Since decomposition organic material was recently shown be accelerated Si, the aim this study examine how Si influences toxicant mobilization peatlands. We selected a fen site Northern Bavaria with naturally bioavailable pore...
<abstract><title><italic>Abstract.</italic></title> Plastic-covered ridge-furrow cultivation (plastic mulch) can substantially influence runoff and soil erosion on agricultural land. However, the impact of this management practice in combination with complex farmland topography has not been thoroughly investigated. The goal study was to identify how influences patterns rates plastic mulch cultivation. We measured sediment transport two mountainous fields South Korea, one a concave convex...
Abstract. Watershed-scale modeling can be a valuable tool to aid in quantification of water quality and yield; however, several challenges remain. In many watersheds, it is difficult adequately quantify hydrologic partitioning. Data scarcity prevalent, accuracy spatially distributed meteorology quantify, forest encroachment land use issues are common, surface groundwater abstractions substantially modify watershed-based processes. Our objective assess the capability Soil Water Assessment...
In this paper, we present the Daily based Morgan–Morgan–Finney model. The main processes in model are on soil erosion model, and it is suitable for estimating surface runoff sediment redistribution patterns seasonal climate regions with complex configurations. We achieved temporal flexibility by utilizing daily time steps, which concentrated rainfall. introduce proportion of impervious cover as a parameter to reflect its impacts through blocking water infiltration protecting from detachment....
Non-sustainable agricultural practices can alter the quality of soil and water. A sustainable management requires detailed understanding how tillage affects quality, erosion, leaching processes. Agricultural soils in Haean catchment (South Korea) are susceptible to erosion by water during monsoon. For years, erosion-induced losses have been compensated spreading allochthonous sandy material on fields. These anthropogenically modified used for vegetable production, crops cultivated ridges...
Abstract. Land use and climate change have long been implicated in modifying ecosystem services, such as water quality yield, biodiversity, agricultural production. To account for future effects on the integration of physical, biological, economic, social data over several scales must be implemented to assess natural resource availability use. Our objective is capability SWAT model capture short-duration monsoonal rainfall-runoff processes complex mountainous terrain under rapid,...
