BackgroundChina has made great progress in ecological restoration. However, there have been no analyses on ecological restoration for specific terrestrial ecosystems. This study identified the important knowledge gaps and advances related to terrestrial ecological restoration in China.Results7973 papers published between 1978 and 2020 were investig...

In this study, we assumed that river rehabilitation refers to a set of ecological and managing actions aimed to recuperate the natural conditions of a river system to sustain biodiversity, permit recreational uses, manage floods, and conciliate the landscape progress. Through this study, we intended to understand the hydrological- and water quality...

China has over 1320 freshwater fish species, 877 of which are endemic. In recent decades, over-exploitation and landscape pressures have threatened them and led to a severe aquatic biodiversity crisis. In response, large-scale fishing bans have been promulgated to protect freshwater biodiversity in major Chinese rivers since the early 1980s. Here, ...

Soil erosion is a critical threat to the agriculture and ecosystem in the Chinese Loess Plateau area. Ecological rehabilitation has been applied in large area for reduction of the soil erosion. Six soil depth profiles were collected from Nanxiaohegou watershed in the Loess Plateau in northwest China and analyzed for the activity concentrations of p...

Despite the enforcement of European regulations, the dissemination of metal trace elements in nature is evolving, while the depletion of mineral resources is alarming. The aim of ecocatalysis is the implementation of breakthrough innovation and crossdisciplinary research in ecological restoration, organic chemistry and green catalysis to overcome t...
Quarrying represents one of the oldest and most important human activities; the impacts of which have largely influenced vegetation and landscape. Despite its character as a vital and non-renewable resource, the soil has been poorly studied with regard to either the impact resulting from the exploitation of quarries or its restoration after exploit...
