The impact of land use and socio-economic factors on ammonia nitrogen pollution in Weihe River watershed, China

Zhilei Bi et al.

Summary: The study found that NH4+-N pollution in the Weihe River watershed was serious, primarily occurring in 2015 and 2016, with lower NH4+-N concentrations in the upper reaches. Multiple linear regression results indicated that building land and secondary industry were the main controlling factors.

Effects of land use on spatial and temporal distribution of soil moisture within profiles

Guoce Xu et al.

Summary: This study investigated soil moisture changes under different land cover types on hillslopes using fine-scale monitoring data. The results showed that vegetation cover reduced soil moisture at the slope scale, and seasonal variation had a significant impact on actual evapotranspiration in arid regions.

Trade-offs Among Ecosystem Services After Vegetation Restoration in China's Loess Plateau

Peng Shi et al.

Summary: The large-scale vegetation restoration program in China's Loess Plateau has positively impacted soil organic carbon storage, soil total nitrogen storage, and soil conservation service, but has led to a decrease in soil water content. There are significant trade-offs among different types of vegetation land-use, with grassland having a greater impact on soil water content, soil organic carbon storage, and soil total nitrogen storage. Coordination of ecosystem services and the use of grassland in water limited areas are important for regional sustainable development.

Effects of dynamic factors of erosion on soil nitrogen and phosphorus loss under freeze-thaw conditions

Yuting Cheng et al.

Summary: The experiment results under freeze-thaw conditions show that freeze-thaw action has a significant impact on sediment loss, nitrogen, and phosphorus loss, making the loss behavior of nitrogen and phosphorus unstable and increasing diversity among individual samples. Freeze-thaw action significantly enhances the effect of dynamic factors on phosphorus and nitrogen loss.

The deep challenge of nitrate pollution in river water of China

Xin Zhang et al.

Summary: Nitrate pollution of river water in China is severe, with sources including inorganic fertilizer, soil nitrogen, and wastewater. Some regions face potential moderate non-carcinogenic risks. Nitrate concentrations are positively correlated with GDP, nitrogen fertilizer usage, wastewater discharge, and population. Urgent action is needed to address pollution and prevent further contamination.
