“…45,46 In addition, oil spills from ships and oil-contaminated water discharges from watercraft are the primary sources of LMW PAHs. 47 Nap has also been reported as the most abundant compound in ship exhaust in previous studies. 37,38 Other studies have also shown that oil pollution and traffic emissions are strongly linked with ship transportation.…”

“…Studies from other surface waters cannot be translated directly to urban canals but provide a basis for further research. For example, studies on the impact of shipping on marine aquatic ecosystems or large rivers identify potential impacts of transportation (Jägerbrand et al 2019 ; Que et al 2020 ). The impact of TEE in the form of heat extraction and subsequent cold water discharge is hardly studied (Van Megchelen 2017 ; Harezlak 2021 ).…”

Canals and canalized rivers form a major part of surface water systems in European delta cities and societal ambitions to use these waters increase. This is the first assessment of how suitability of these waters can improve for three important uses: transportation, thermal energy extraction (TEE) and recreation. We assess suitability with Suitability Indices (SIs) and identify which alterations in the water system are needed to improve SI scores in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and Ghent, Belgium. The results show spatial variability in suitability scores. Current suitability for transportation is low (SI score = 1) to excellent (SI score = 4), for TEE fair (SI score = 2) to excellent (SI score = 4), and suitability for recreation is low (SI score = 1). Suitability could improve by enlarging specific waterway dimensions, increasing discharge and clarity, and by enhancing microbiological water quality. The same methodology can be applied to optimize designs for new water bodies and for more water uses.

“…This study employed the percentage of navigable river sections (C14) to characterize river transport function. More navigable rivers have a better transport function [46], showing that the river can produce fresh water resources. This study employed the modulus of groundwater resources (C15) and the utilization rate of water resource (C16) to characterize the water supply function.…”

Rivers are beneficial to humans due to their multiple functions. However, human meddling substantially degrades the functions of rivers and constitutes a threat to river health. Therefore, it is vital to assess and maintain river function. This study used the Xiaoqing River in Shandong Province, China, as a case study and established a multilayered multifunctional river evaluation indicator system consisting of environmental function, ecological function, social function, and economic function. The weights of indicators were calculated using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the entropy method. Furthermore, a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model based on the Cauchy distribution function was developed to assess the operation status of each function in each river segment. The results of the indicator and criterion layers in different river sections varied. The multifunctionality of the river decreased from upstream to downstream. The Jinan section was the most multifunctional, followed by the Binzhou, Zibo, and Dongying sections, and finally the Weifang section. Through additional analysis, this study determined the constraint indicators and functions of each river section. Overall, the results reveal that the idea of a “multifunctional river” can advance the theoretical understanding of a river’s function, and the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model is demonstrated to provide fresh perspectives for evaluating river function.
