Defining sustainability in agricultural water management using a Delphi survey technique
Sustainable water management measures are being developed to address the challenges posed by agriculture runoff and leaching on water resources. These measures are based on experts' opinions from various sectors and disciplines, ensuring that all stakeholders' perspectives are considered. For this, establishing a common understanding of 'sustainability' is essential to avoid misunderstandings, conflicts, and operational challenges. In this resear…
Spatiotemporal changes in Iranian rivers’ discharge
Trends in river flow at national scale in Iran remain largely unclear, despite good coverage of river flow at multiple monitoring stations. To address this gap, this study explores the changes in Iranian rivers’ discharge using regression and analysis of variance methods to historically rich data measured at hydrometric stations. Our assessment is performed for 139 selected hydrometric stations located in Iranian data-rich basins that cover aroun…
A century of variations in extreme flow across Finnish rivers
River flow in cold climates is known to be one of the hydrological systems most affected by climate change, playing a central role in the sustainability of downstream socio-ecological systems. Numerous studies on the temporal and spatial variations of streamflow characteristics have been done, and a comprehensive study on the variation of hydrologic extremes is becoming increasingly important. This study evaluated the long-running changes in the …
Caspian Sea is eutrophying
The competition over extracting the energy resources of the Caspian Sea together with the major anthropogenic changes in the coastal zones have resulted in increased pollution and environmental degradation of the sea. We provide the first evaluation of the spatiotemporal variation of chlorophyll- a (Chl- a ) across the Caspian Sea. Using remotely sensed data from 2003 to 2017, we found that the Caspian Sea has suffered from a growing increase in …
Vulnerability of the Caspian Sea shoreline to changes in hydrology and climate
During the past three decades, sea water level (SWL) in the Caspian Sea has declined by about 2 m and sea area has decreased by about 15 000 km 2 . This has affected coastal communities, the environment and economically important gulfs of the sea (e.g. Dead Kultuk). To assess the effects of coastline change and evaluate zones vulnerable to desiccation, we simulated SWL using total inflow from feeder rivers and precipitation and evaporation over t…
Potential impacts of a future Nordic bioeconomy on surface water quality
Nordic water bodies face multiple stressors due to human activities, generating diffuse loading and climate change. The ‘green shift’ towards a bio-based economy poses new demands and increased pressure on the environment. Bioeconomy-related pressures consist primarily of more intensive land management to maximise production of biomass. These activities can add considerable nutrient and sediment loads to receiving waters, posing a threat to ecosy…
Future options for cultivated Nordic peat soils
Groundwater dependent ecosystems. Part I
Groundwater dependent ecosystems. Part II. Ecosystem services and management in Europe under risk of climate change and land use intensification
Groundwater in sufficient amounts and of suitable quality is essential for potable water supplies, crop irrigation and healthy habitats for plant and animal biocenoses. The groundwater resource is currently under severe pressure from land use and pollution and there is evidence of dramatic changes in aquifer resources in Europe and elsewhere, despite numerous policy measures on sustainable use and protection of groundwater. Little is known about …
