Multi-layer aquifer hydrogeological responses to deep coal mining and their controlling mechanisms: A hydrochemical and multi-isotope coupling study

Study region The Dahaize Coal Mine lies on the southern margin of the Mu Us Sandy Land, a key part of the large coal energy base in northern Shaanxi, China. Study focus Deep coal mining severely disturbs regional groundwater stability, yet the long-term and multi-scale responses...

Simulation of Discharge Evolution in the Main Streams of Large Rivers Using a Deep Learning Model: A Case Study of the Yellow River, China

Abstract Simulating river discharge evolution is fundamental to water resources management in large river basins. Nevertheless, human activities such as intensive water abstraction, reservoir operation, and other anthropogenic interventions have rendered the patterns of river dis...

Soil microbial community structure and assembly are more strongly associated with soil background nitrogen content than by short-term nitrogen addition in a salt marsh

Soil microbes drive nutrient cycling, and microbial community composition and assembly are often shaped by plant succession and environmental heterogeneity. Nitrogen (N) is a vital nutrient for microorganisms, yet it remains unclear whether microbial responses to elevated N input...

Interpretable GraphDeep Learning Reveals EcologicalRisks and Attribution Patterns of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbonsin Urban Greenspace Soils across China

Abstract Characterizing the complex environmental and socioeconomic associations underlying risks related to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in urban greenspace soils is important for ecosystem health, yet conventional tabular models do not explicitly represent these cros...

Runoff Simulation and Analysis in the Upper Yellow River Basin Using a Budyko–XGBoost Coupled Model

The Upper Yellow River (UYR) basin is the predominant runoff-yielding area of the entire watershed. Accurately simulating annual runoff is crucial for water resources management. While the Budyko framework effectively captures long-term hydro-thermal equilibrium, it struggles to...

Crop Growth Models: Development, Applications, Recent Advances, and Future Perspectives

Global climate change has posed a serious threat to agricultural production and food security. Crop growth models, with their excellent simulation and prediction capabilities, have become one of the important tools for guiding agricultural production and ensuring food security. T...
