Influence of meteorological drought on environmental flows in mountain catchments

Ecological Indicators, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 133, С. 108460 - 108460

This study investigates the course of atmospheric drought to response water resources availability taking into account constraints arising from need maintain adequate environmental flows (e-flow) releases. For that purpose, eight catchments southern Poland, namely, Skawa and Dunajec sub-basins (i.e., upper Vistula basin), were considered as cases. The analysis was carried out follows: trend streamflow rate mean annual precipitation; determination e-flows using following methods: 25% multi-year flow (25%MAF), minimum acceptable determined by Kostrzewa's method (Qn), median monthly (Qmed), with a guarantee 90% (Q90%), 7-day recurrence period 2 years (7Q2). standardized precipitation index (SPI) normal (PNI) used meteorological indices determine relationship between e-flow results revealed lack significant trends in significantly decreasing sub-basin. sub-basin, detected only for Biała; increasing Biała Sękówka catchments. highest values obtained Qmed lowest 7Q2. SPI resulting show most dominated drought. According PNI values, dominant years. Extremely wet found sporadically triggered extremely high over like 2010. demonstrate correlations SPI, PNI, 25%MAF Qmed. Moreover, exhibited weak correlation rate, medium e-flows. findings this showed could be helpful tool management planning, especially predicting influence droughts on deficit.

Natural flood management: Opportunities to implement nature‐based solutions on privately owned land

Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews Water, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 10(3)

Опубликована: Фев. 1, 2023

Abstract The implementation of Natural Flood Management (NFM), as an example a nature‐based solution (NbS), is promoted risk reduction strategy to support sustainable flood management and climate change adaptation more widely. Additionally, NbS, NFM aims provide further multiple benefits, such increased biodiversity improved water quality well mental health. NbS often needs private‐owned or managed land, yet can create conflicts between the different stakeholders which undermine social consensus required for successful implementation. Consequently, main question how benefits requirements be delivered meet goals wide variety who must involved. This article discusses challenges potential implementing alternative traditional technical mitigation measures in management. We outline four opportunities NFM: physical conditions catchment, interaction, financial resources, institutional setting. Their importance then demonstrated compared examples across globe. Nevertheless, core drivers reflect interaction setting role NFM. categorized under: Engineering Water > Planning Human Governance Science Extremes Life Conservation, Management, Awareness

Multi-, inter-, and transdisciplinary approaches to nature-based flood risk management

Current Opinion in Environmental Science & Health, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 38, С. 100537 - 100537

Опубликована: Фев. 3, 2024

Nature-based solutions (NBS) can act as a valuable complement to conventional 'grey' infrastructure for stormwater management (e.g. dams and dikes) in reducing flood risks, these 'green' are perceived be more flexible multifunctional. However, achieve effective NBS, multi-actor approach developing appropriate measures specific sites is required, NBS occupy space than often overlap with private land. also necessitate multidisciplinary approach, maximise environmental, social economic benefits. Thus, transdisciplinary needed implementation of NBS. Viewing boundary concept, focusing on the common ground different disciplines actors, facilitate communication provide first step towards risk mitigation.

An interdisciplinary overview of levee setback benefits: Supporting spatial planning and implementation of riverine nature‐based solutions

Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews Water, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 11(6)

Опубликована: Июль 24, 2024

Abstract Nature‐based solutions (NbS, and related concepts like natural infrastructure, Ecosystem‐based Adaptation, green infrastructure) are increasingly recognized as multi‐benefit strategies for addressing the critical sustainability challenges of Anthropocene, including climate emergency biodiversity crisis. Mainstreaming NbS in professional practice requires strategic, landscape‐level planning integrating multiple sources benefits their synergies trade‐offs. Levee setbacks (LS) among best‐studied riverine with flood risk management, drought resilience, water quality recreational opportunities, ecological restoration biodiversity. Although awareness multifarious LS forms Natural Capital is growing, implementation remains ad‐hoc opportunistic. To address this gap one major example NbS, we review synthesize literature across diverse disciplines to provide an overview primary social, economic, mechanisms that affect co‐benefit delivery projects. Next, make information relevant practitioners, link these spatial metrics can be used approximate relative magnitude project costs mechanisms. Finally, highlight examples key trade‐offs should considered planning. This synthetic approach intended familiarize readers potential LS, understanding how select prioritize sites further study implementation. Synergies important benefit drivers abound, social equity concerns will paramount ensuring successful other future. article categorized under: Engineering Water > Sustainable Planning Life Nature Freshwater Ecosystems

Water quality, biological quality, and human well-being: Water salinity and scarcity in the Draa River basin, Morocco

Ecological Indicators, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 148, С. 110050 - 110050

Опубликована: Фев. 26, 2023

River ecosystems are being threatened by rising temperatures, aridity, and salinity due to climate change increased water abstractions. These threats also put human well-being at risk, as people rivers closely connected, particularly in water-scarce regions. We aimed investigate the relationship between biological physico-chemical river quality using arid Draa basin a case study. Physico-chemical measurements, monitoring of aquatic macroinvertebrates, household surveys were used assess state water, ecosystem, well-being, well associations them. Salinity levels exceeded maximum permissible values for drinking 35 % irrigation 12 sites. low flow associated with quality. Human satisfaction quantity quality, agriculture, natural environment, overall life Middle Draa, where 89% respondents reported emotional distress scarcity. Drinking was generally rated lower areas characterized higher The study found positive indices, but no significant association these factors satisfaction. findings suggest that physicochemical is complex more comprehensive approach likely needed establish relationships.
