Objective: Shiyan city was the core water source area of the middle route of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project, a comprehensive understanding of the current situation of livestock and poultry pollution and its potential threat to farmland would provide a basis for strengthening...

There has been an increase in the demand for animal products with rapid population growth. In Turkey and in many countries to meet this demand, livestock has become a rapidly growing industry. With this rapid development, more waste has emerged in livestock enterprises and some environmental...

Traditional method of estimating pollution loads may neglect the internal spatial heterogeneity of socio-economic driving factors, which can result in overestimate and underestimate of pollution loads. In this study, the corrected approach to estimating total phosphorus (TP) pollution load was...

Pollutant flux estimation and the analysis of flux variations are the basis for water quality assessment and water pollution control. At present, pollution flux estimation has certain shortcomings, such as a low frequency of water quality monitoring and inadequate calculation methods. To improve...

Lake sediments are important sinks of various pollutants and preserve historical pollution records caused by anthropogenic activities. Recently, the sediments of Lake Jangseong, South Korea were first detected with high concentrations of organic matter (ignition loss [IL]; total organic carbon...

The rapid development of animal husbandry has resulted in serious pollution issues in the livestock and poultry breeding industry, increasing the cost of environmental management. This issue is particularly prominent in China due to its rapid economic development, significant domestic consumption,...

The transport of agricultural nonpoint source (NPS) pollutants in water pathways is affected by various factors such as precipitation, terrain, soil erosion, surface and subsurface flows, soil texture, land management, and vegetation coverage. In this study, based on the transmission mechanism of...

Background: Water is an indispensable and precious natural resource for human and other organisms to survive, as well as for socio-economic development and agricultural production. Water resources shortage has become the focus of people's attention. With the continuous growth of China's population...

While pollutants are the most important factors for the deterioration of surface water quality, the identification of major pollutant sources for rivers is challenging, especially in areas with diverse land covers and multiple pollutant inputs. This study aims to identify the significant pollutant...

Baiyangdian lake, the largest fresh lake on the Haihe Basin in North China, has attracted wide attention on account of the distinguished ecological water bodies in Xiong'an New Area. Although remarkable achievements have been made in pollution control in Baiyangdian lake, the problem facing the...
