“…Significant repercussions have followed the introduction of artificial structures, such as weirs, into natural river systems. These systems have been transformed into constrained water bodies, leading to the obstruction of pollutant dispersion, disruption of natural flow patterns, and promotion of the accumulation of soluble substances, which diminishes the self-purification capacity of rivers, causes sediment build-up, eutrophication, and threatens aquatic ecosystems [1][2][3][4][5].…”

This study investigates the ecological effects of weirs on water quality and phytoplankton communities in the South Han River (SHR) over a two-year period. By focusing on three key weirs—Kangcheon Weir, Yeoju Weir, and Ipo Weir—the research examines how artificial structures influence river hydrodynamics, nutrient cycles, and algal growth patterns. Utilizing water quality measurements, phytoplankton analysis, and environmental factor assessments, the study identifies significant fluctuations in water quality parameters and phytoplankton abundance across the surveyed points. The analysis reveals a direct correlation between environmental conditions such as temperature, flow rates, and nutrient concentrations, particularly nitrogen and phosphorus, and the proliferation of harmful cyanobacteria, notably Microcystis. This research highlights the critical role of comprehensive management strategies that consider hydraulic residence time, nutrient balance, and temperature regulation to mitigate the impacts of weirs on river ecosystems and improve water quality in the SHR.

“…Restoring the sediment budget of the wetland system can reactivate the sediment source–sink function of the wetland and have a positive effect on the restoration of the aquatic habitat (Florsheim et al 2008; Noe and Hupp 2009). Currently, the main measures are to dismantle, reduce, or rebuild the rapid flow control facilities and restore the natural form of the shore and floodplain (Muhar et al 2018).…”

Under the dual influences of high‐intensity anthropogenic activity and climate change, wetland hydrologic connectivity (HC) has decreased significantly, resulting in the severe fragmentation of wetlands, a decrease in wetland area, and a degradation of hydrological functions, resulting in a worsening disaster response to floods and droughts. Dynamic changes in wetland HC are affected by a variety of factors. Many degraded wetlands have undergone measures to restore HC. Recovery can improve the HC pattern of degraded wetlands. Based on the knowledge of practitioners and a review of the literature, it was found that recovery measures can be divided into structural recovery and functional recovery according to the specific recovery objectives. However, the current recovery method lacks a holistic analysis of the HC pattern. To this end, we propose a hydrologic network–water balance‐based HC recovery and management framework that overcomes the limitations of single‐drive‐factor repair and local repair effects.

Status of fish assemblage structure in the Ganga and Indus riverine systems of the western Himalaya

et al. 2023

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The Ganga and Indus riverine systems are the major freshwater resources in the western Himalaya. The aim of this review was to critically analyze the status of inland fisheries in both the Ganga and Indus Riverine systems of the western Himalaya. Data from secondary sources such as research publications, scientific documents, technical advisories, and books were retrieved. The fish diversity of both riverine systems reveals that the number of endemic and native species like Tor tor, Tor putitora, Glyptothorax spp., Nemacheilus spp., and Schizothorax richardsonii is decreasing. Moreover, in most of the rivers of both riverine systems, exotic species, especially those belonging to the Cyprinidae family, for example, Cyprinus carpio, are increasing and are also dominant, followed by the families Cobitidae and Sisoridae. The Ganga and Indus riverine systems' diverse fish populations have declined because of various anthropogenic activities, especially water pollution and dam construction, which are responsible for the change in river hydrology. Frequent data were available on the Ganga riverine system, which shows a continuous decline in fish diversity. A similar trend was observed in the lower stretches of the Indus riverine system. But negligible information was available on the upper stretches of the Indus riverine system; this may be due to a large research gap. However, adequate knowledge of both river systems is necessary to develop conservation and management strategies for the sustainable development of fishery resources in India in the future.
