Physiography and land use patterns influence streams water quality by affecting non-point
source (NPS) pollution process. However, each landscape factor may affect the NPS …

Widespread attention has been given to understanding the effect of the landscape pattern
on river water quality. However, which spatial scale (riparian zone versus sub-basin) has the …

Understanding the scale relationship between landscape pattern and water quality is of
great significance for improving water pollution and guiding the rational planning of land use …

Determining the associations between landscape pattern and river water quality and
quantifying the abrupt change points of landscape metrics are vital to optimize landscape …

Landscape pattern critically affects hydrological cycling and the processes of non-point
source nutrients pollution. However, little is known about the quantitative relationship …

Significant attention has recently been given towards understanding the hydrological effects
of landscape structures. However, few studies have quantified the relationships between …

Comprehensive landscape patterns influence water quality with multiple factors, complex
processes, and scale dependence. However, studies identifying landscape thresholds …

The riparian buffer width on watersheds has been modified over the last decades. The
human settlements heavily used and have significantly altered those areas, for farming …

Landscape pattern can regulate water quality, but determining the thresholds at which
landscape metrics impact water quality remains a key issue. Thus, in this study, we …

In recent decades, substantial changes have occurred in the spatial structure and form of
landscapes in metropolises; these have greatly impacted ecosystem provision capacities …
