ABSTRACT “Sustainable river management” (SRM) and “paradigm shifts in (PSRM) are frequently employed the field of management, widely recognized by both researchers policymakers. However, past studies often present these concepts as implicitly understood, typically addressing one isolation without exploring interrelationship between two or their combined potential a comprehensive analytical tool for practical management. This paper aims to elucidate connection SRM PSRM, proposing an integrated framework enhance analysis management practices. Using Taiwan's Keelung River case study, findings reveal that river's history can be divided into four paradigms: “structural emergency measures,” “dominant structural “integrated water management,” ultimately, SRM. Each paradigm reflects negotiations, compromises, coordination efforts stakeholders at time, with enduring influence on today. While historically effective, long‐standing preference flood control through levee construction now struggles address challenges posed short‐duration extreme rainfall emerging environmental ecological needs, testing adaptive capacities central local governments.

Nature-based Solutions (NbSs) bridge ecological conservation and human well-being. As the concept gains global traction, its potential for cultural heritage preservation is drawing increasing interest. This study explores localized application of NbSs in Chinese villages, focusing on two core questions: compatibility with traditional construction wisdom practical pathways localization. A literature review reveals strong theoretical alignment between NbS principles indigenous building practices. develops a dual quantitative framework—comprising an evaluation system value assessment system—for coupling coordination analysis. Results show interdependence integration village value, villages (0.7806) achieving better balance protection than non-traditional (0.5953), validating local wisdom. Based gray relational analysis, disaster risk management governance are identified as key dimensions shaping integrity knowledge continuity. An integrated indicator combining metrics proposed. confirms wisdom, offering localization framework insights conservation.
