Treatment of agricultural non-point source pollution in a pilot scale by enhanced riverbank interception facilities with different temperatures, rainfall intensities and rainfall interval conditions was investigated. The results showed that if water temperature decreased from 20 degrees to 4. 3 degrees, the removal efficiencies of COD, TN, NH4+ -N, TP decreased by 15. 58%, 48. 93%, 42. 26%, 57. 75% respectively, and no significant effect on the removal of SS was found. If rainfall intensity increased doubled from 0.65 mm.min-1 to 1. 30 mm.min-1, it made the average removal rate of COD decrease 15. 19%, TN, NH4+ -N did not change and removal efficiency of TP increased 11.21%. But the total removed quantity per unit area of COD, TN, NH4+ -N, TP increased by 26. 27%, 68. 3%, 32. 6%, and 104. 2%. If rainfall interval increased from 2 to 4 days, it would make NH4+ -N, TN removal efficiencies increase by 19. 31%, 13. 95% respectively, and the removed quantity per unit area of TP increased 71. 43%, but the total removal quantity of TP was limited.

Excessive total suspended matter (TSM) concentrations can exert a considerable impact on the growth of aquatic organisms in fishponds, representing a significant risk to aquaculture health. This study revised existing unified models using empirical data to develop an optimized TSM retrieval model tailored for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) (R = 0.69, RMSE = 7.

Coastal waters are the ultimate destination for both point and non-point sources of contamination. The uncontrolled dicharge of fecal waste into the ocean harms natural resources, marine life, and poses health risks to humans. Regular monitoring of coastal water quality and source tracking is important to prevent disease outbreaks.

Microbial inoculations have emerged as a key approach to address the low natural microbial activity of traditional composting technologies. It is crucial for successfully promoting manure composting to understand the influences of microbial inoculations on fungal communities and its mechanisms. To investigate the effects of microbial inoculation on diversity characteristics, tropic mode, and co-occurrence network of fungal communities during composting, an aerobic composting experiment of chicken manure inoculated with microbial agents was performed.

The study of terrestrial phosphorus inflow （hereafter referred to as phosphorus inflow） fluxes is essential for controlling non-point source （NPS） pollution. The SWAT model was successfully used to simulate phosphorus inflow fluxes in the Dongting Lake area, while a hybrid model （LSTM and SWAT） was developed and validated for predicting the reduction in phosphorus inflow fluxes among rivers based on three typical reduction scenarios： agricultural control, livestock and poultry reduction, and soil and water conservation measures. The results showed that the inflow flux of TP was 3.

This study analyzed surface water from the River Swat, Pakistan, using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, multivariate statistical techniques, and US-EPA risk assessment models to evaluate the concentrations, distribution, pathways, and potential risks of arsenic (As) and heavy metals, including chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb). The results revealed significant correlations (p ≤ 0.01) among metals that indicated common pollution sources, likely influenced by anthropogenic point and non-point activities.
