A quantitative assessment of the responses hydrological processes to environmental change is vital for sustainable utilization groundwater and development under dual influences climate global greening. However, few studies have investigated differences in hydrologic between karst non-karst regions. Thus, we analyzed spatiotemporal changes potential recharge (PGR), as a proportion precipitation (PGR/P), actual evapotranspiration (AET) regions 1982–2020 using V2karst model. The analysis revealed following results: (1) model efficiently monitored variations AET depth (GWD), which indicated its suitability use areas. (2) PGR, PGR/P, increased at rates 4.9 mm/y, 0.0011, 1.4 mm/y areas, 3.8 0.00053, 1.6 respectively, with increasing trend being significant (3) (P) were significantly correlated PGR while minimum temperature (TMN) was strongly related AET. Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) moderately affected humid catchments. Climate primary factor processes, whereas vegetation restoration has relatively minor impact. results this study are beneficial toward adoption strategic programs ecological measures diverse geological setting.

Rainfall-runoff nitrogen (N) pollution has emerged as the primary source of water contamination due to rapid urbanization. Green infrastructure (GI), representative measure, is widely used in controlling N runoff. However, there limited research on impact woody plants reduction GIs. Therefore, this study aimed investigate influence and relationship Sophora japonica (with tap root) Malus baccata fibrous removal Utilizing advanced root analysis software WinRHIZO (version 4.0b), a meticulous examination morphological traits plant roots was conducted. The findings unveiled striking contrast between systems two species: S. primarily boasts vertically oriented configuration, whereas M. baccata’s system characterized by an extensively lateral, or horizontal, growth pattern. Specifically, comparison japonica, horizontal demonstrated substantial superiority, with their total length measuring 10.95 times longer, surface area spanning 6.25 wider, cumulative volume being 3.93 greater. For comparing load rates runoff NH3-N, NO3-N, TN different morphologies’ GIs, GI had highest purification effect three pollutants, average pollutants reached 67.74%, 33.83%, 38.96%, respectively, which were 11.42%, 27.46%, 6.16% higher than those control. variance contribution rate vertical characteristics accounted for 86.47% rate. most crucial characteristic factor affecting load.
