By analyzing the basic components of urban wetland ecological landscape, such as patch density, aggregation index, dispersion index, average fractal dimension, landscape segmentation, shape index, spread index and Shannon diversity index, MSPA analysis method is used to extract the core area, patch area and ring of urban wetland. According to the extraction results, the minimum function of cloud fusion transformation of three-dimensional wetland ecological landscape is calculated, and the function is used to calculate the three-dimensional translation transformation amount and rotation matrix of three-dimensional wetland ecological landscape model. The data in the three-dimensional model are used for wetland ecological landscape planning, so as to complete the construction of wetland ecological landscape planning model. The simulation results show that the urban wetland ecological landscape planning accuracy of the model is high and the planning time is short.","PeriodicalId":15653,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42816617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the change characteristics of the habitat quality and human activities in different topographic gradients in rapidly urbanized mountainous cities remain unclear. Accordingly, Guiyang in China, is selected as the representative of typical mountain cities. The change characteristics of the habitat quality, the human activity intensity and their correlation in mountainous cities from 2000 to 2020, are analyzed using the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) model, as well as the ArcGIS software based on the remote sensing interpretation data in 2000, 2010 and 2020. The results demonstrate that the overall habitat quality in Guiyang decreased by 0.0304, while the human activity intensity increased by 0.0287 from 2000 to 2020. The amount of changes of the habitat quality and the human activity intensity in Guiyang from 2010 to 2020, are higher than those from 2000 to 2010. The amount of changes of the habitat quality and the human activity intensity in Guiyang decreases with the increase of the slope. The central and southern parts of Guiyang are the highlight areas with a significant decline of habitat quality and significant increase of human activity intensity. The areas with an increased habitat quality and decreased human activity intensity are sporadically distributed. A significant negative correlation is reported between the change of the habitat quality and human activity intensity in Guiyang. In addition, a prominent spatial heterogeneity is identified in the local indicators of the spatial association (LISA) map. The significant increase in the artificial land and the decrease in the natural land as affected by the rapid urbanization, act as crucial factors leading to the decline of the habitat quality and the increase in the human activity intensity in mountainous cities.","PeriodicalId":15653,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45528638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mangroves of Sinjai District in South Sulawesi are a disturbed region with no previous study on SOC stock. We implemented a line transect method at five study sites, collected 15 soil cores at a depth of 0–15 cm, 15–30 cm, and 30–50 cm, and performed soil analysis using the Loss on Ignition method. We find that the mean value of SOC stock is 413.10±12.37 Mg C ha–1. More attention to the conservation and restoration of lost mangrove areas is a high priority. It may also increase the stock of SOC to mitigate climate change. This study will help to preserve the remaining mangroves.","PeriodicalId":15653,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43520493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was related to biochar’s higher average capillary radius, moisture content and lower air velocity. However, removal of xylene was much lower and reached 72% in the case of modified biochar.

This study aims to determine the efficiency of a hybrid biological reactor treating actual petrochemical wastewater and to identify the efficiency determining factors. An up-flow biological reactor filled with bio-career was operated at two flow rates, two dissolved oxygen (DO) levels, and under anaerobic conditions. Due to the varying characteristics of actual petrochemical wastewater, efficiency limitations were manifested in many ways. However, the highest chemical oxygen demand and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) removal efficiencies were 77.2% and 78.5%, respectively, and were achieved under aerobic operation at organic loading rates (OLRs) of 0.2 kg-COD/m3/d and hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 26.67 h (DO 4.0 mg/l). Anaerobically, the highest efficiency was 41.7 for both at 0.18 kg-COD/m3/d and 400 ml/min. The total organic carbon (TOC) removal stability was attributed to the presence of toxic chemicals and removal mechanisms other than biodegradation, as it tapered off at high loading. The nutrient removal efficiency was marginal, conceivably due to the high organics to nutrient ratio and toxic conditions of the wastewater promoting nutrient removal inside the biofilm.","PeriodicalId":15653,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Engineering and Landscape Management","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43002162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How the characteristics of wastewater could be altered by the COVID-19 pandemic was the concern of this investigation. Daily records of the Ardiya catchment in Kuwait City were examined for the period 2015–2020. Perhaps due to the excessive use of water during 2020 (446 compared to the five-year average of 436 l/c.d) and the corresponding wastewater generation increase (253 compared to the five-year average of 239 l/c.d), the effect of chemical usage on the wastewater quality has dampened. Nonetheless, an increase in the frequency of COD/BOD ratio > 3, TP in the range 6.5 to 8.5, TKN in the range 40 to 50 were observed in 2020, which was not observed during 2015–2019.
