“…For most point sources (and partly for non-point sources), treatment by wastewater plants reduced water quality issues in downstream areas, which typically hosted dense populations and urbanized areas (i.e., the Yanshi and Zhangzhou Basins; Acuña et al, 2019). EDs that directly returned to the ecosystem (i.e., most non-point sources), along with drainage from wastewater treatment plants, were purely cut down by the ecosystems (Chaplin-Kramer et al, 2019;Díaz et al, 2018;Ervinia et al, 2019). Different capacities for nitrogen depletion might be attributed to the heterogeneity of hydrological connectivity, microbial traits in soil, and biodiversity attributes in different basins (Harrison et al, 2014;Hallouin et al, 2018;Pommier et al, 2018).…”

To sustain water-dependent economic and socio-ecological systems, natural capital and its interactions with other capitals is gaining attention, but a clear understanding of how to manage natural capital sustainably and how to make decisions relevant to waterrelated ecosystem services is yet to be achieved. In this study, we extended the framing of water-related ecosystem service flows as a cycle, integrating water quantity and quality and capturing the flows of ecosystem services (i.e., green phase) and ecosystem disservices (i.e., red phase), and connecting natural capital, built capital, and beneficiaries. We applied this framework to the Jiulong River watershed in China, using hydrological models to model water quantity and quality based on historical observations and experimental data. Our results showed that, during the green phase, the interactions of natural capital and built capital significantly improved water quality in downstream areas with higher flows. During the red phase, built capital reduced ecosystem disservices by ~10% while natural capital further reduced it by over one half.Our framework can provide information for natural capital management, ecocompensation, and pollutant management relevant to water-related ecosystem services.

“…Rong et al, 2019). Effective watershed management can play an important role in managing the damage runoff (Fu et al, 2019), reducing the impact of sediment output and river erosion (Du et al, 2016), increasing groundwater storage (Ghorbani Nejad et al, 2017), and utilizing land and water resources (Ervinia et al, 2019;Wada et al, 2020). A watershed is a region that sustains all kinds of runoff of the stream, lake, or ocean.…”

MIST) aims at being one of the leading Institutions of Engineering and Technology in regional and international ranking and it continues to play its role as a centre of excellence in creating and disseminating new knowledge in the cutting-edge areas of Science and Technology. I firmly believe that 'MIST International Journal of Science and Technology (MIJST)', the flagship journal of this Institution has already been able to make an impact with its quality signatures. I am happy to note that MIJST is already indexed by a number of search engines, such as, DOI Crossref, Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic Search, Publons, Semantic Scholar, BaglaJOL, Creative Commons and Open Journal System and working toward getting indexed in SCOPUS, Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) and Web of Science (WoS).Golden Jubilee of our Independence is a landmark event for us. To make this event memorable, this issue of MIJST has been dedicated to the Golden Jubilee of Independence of Bangladesh. I would like to express my sincere thanks to the MIJST team for its on time publication of consecutive 3 issues of MIJST, despite the COVID-19 Pandemic situation. My deep appreciations to the Authors of this issue for their scholarly contributions. Reviewers are also acknowledged for providing invaluable peer review to the articles to ensure high quality of the papers. Very special thanks to the National and the International Advisory Boards for their invaluable suggestions and guidance in maintaining the quality of the Journal. I wish continued success of MIJST.
