“…The survey indicated that some NBS measures have rather uncertain effects at various scales and across environments, as their efficiency depends on topography, vegetation type, soils and spatial configuration and extent (barrier A). This mainly relates to nature-based river dams, where accurate calculations are absent for their effects on alleviation of peak discharges as well as for their effect on sediment budgets in case of sediment traps and log dams (Macura et al, 2016;Kidová et al, 2021). Moreover, uncertainties result from temporal instabilities of nature-based river dams, such as log dams, which may release a substantial volume of woody debris during peak discharges and affect flow direction and velocities (Wen Lo et al, 2021).…”

“…At present, landscape models in 3D are understood to be intelligent tools with an enormous database of information. The standardization of 3D geographic information systems highlights the importance of sharing information as well as the use of semantic information in the creation of a representation of environmental objects such as buildings, greenery, water elements and others (Aien et al, 2013;Gröger and Plümer, 2012;Zhu et al, 2011;Macura et al, 2016;Ivan et al, 2016).…”

Many years of EIA and SEA practice have resulted in the development of a wide range of methods that can also be used in landscape impact assessment. These range from methods and techniques that are applied frequently (such as analogs, checklists, expert opinions, mass balances, matrices and interaction diagrams, overlay mapping, photographs/photomontages or qualitative models), to those that are used moderately (such as decision-focused checklists, indices or indicators, laboratory testing, literature reviews, networks, quantitative models) and to those that are used sometimes only (such as environmental cost-benefit analysis, expert systems, baseline monitoring and field studies monitoring, risk assessment, scenario building, trend extrapolation, etc.). Given the multidisciplinary nature and understanding of landscape, a lot of professionals including ecologists, geographers, environmental experts, planners and architects, artists, psychologists, economists and others are engaging in studies of landscape assessment and perception. As a result, they have introduced and explored the application of different sets of methods representing their own disciplinary perspectives, contributing to making the literature in this area, extensive and vast. This chapter introduces and briefly explains the most commonly used methods and techniques in landscape impact assessment. An overview of moderately used methods and techniques is also provided. The type method and technique to use is determined based on the stage of the assessment process, geographical scale, the hierarchical level or the specifics of the assessed development proposal. The most commonly used methods and techniques in landscape impact assessment include: • baseline description, surveys and analysis methods, which include baseline data and field surveys which allow for the subsequent landscape evaluation and generation of follow-up data for monitoring purposes, • impact identification and prediction methods, which include checklists, visual quality models, integrated landscape management models, landscape-ecology based models and scenarios, multi-criteria evaluation method and landscape ecological stability methodology. These methods also serve as a reference basis for assessing the significance of impacts, • impact assessment and monitoring methods which include matrices and interaction diagrams, criteria, thresholds and indicators,

“…As important resources and environmental carriers, urban rivers and lakes perform flood control and water storage functions and contribute to ecological improvement, climate regulation, landscape beautification, and so forth [1][2][3]. Deteriorating aquatic conditions can severely limit the development of surrounding cities [4].…”

Reclaimed water produced via the advanced treatment of domestic wastewater has broad application prospects for reuse in urban rivers, while the nutrients in reclaimed water, especially nitrogen and phosphorus, lead to eutrophication or ecological impacts. Submerged plants are preferred as an enhanced technology used at reclaimed water recharge sites for both water quality improvement purposes and ecological conservation functions. In this study, which adopted the typical submerged plant Myriophyllum verticillatum (M. verticillatum) as its experimental object, experiments were carried out in an illumination incubator without a substrate and under hydrostatic conditions to investigate the water purification effects and mechanisms of action of M. verticillatum at different planting densities. The analysis showed that the group with a wet weight of 2.5 g L−1 had the best growth status and the best overall performance with respect to improvements in water quality indicators, including COD, nitrogen, and phosphorus, as well as demonstrating excellent uptake and synergistic effects in the process of removing nitrogen and phosphorus. The contributions of natural effects, the uptake and enrichment by M. verticillatum itself, and the synergistic effects during the nitrogen and phosphorus removal process were quantified. Furthermore, 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to determine the surface-attached bacterial colonies of M. verticillatum, to analyze their population diversity, and to identify environmental functional genera. In conclusion, an appropriate density of M. verticillatum can improve water quality and provide a suitable environment for the survival and growth of relevant environmentally functional microorganisms, effectively removing nitrogen and phosphorus through its own absorption and synergistic effects.
