The Ecosystem Services Assessment of Wetlands based on the Classification of Hydrological-ecological Structures and Functions (Case study: Shadegan Wetland) by leila Rahimi, Bahram Malekmohammadi, Ahmad reza Yavari

“…The management strategies are developed based on EBM-DPSER model and trade-off analysis of wetland ecosystem services.The most important management strategies include the following: - Preparation of the wetland land use map and zoning of the wetland to appropriate and allowed areas for human activities; - Investigating existing livelihood patterns and providing alternative and eco-friendly livelihoods in the region; - Investigating existing livelihood patterns and providing alternative and eco-friendly livelihoods in the region; - Establishing a legal mechanism for allocating the right of water wetland from the upstream rivers and restoring the wetland share of the agricultural, industrial and energy sectors; - Identifying the main sources of dust and developing biomechanical and bioengineering plans using the existing capacities in the province, especially attracting local people's participation. 4-Conclusion The proposed framework has gone beyond the traditional approaches to assessing and managing wetlands, which have not yet been effective and are not based on the understanding of the structure and functions of wetlands. …”

Research progress on comprehensive utilization of phosphogypsum and metallurgical acidic gypsum residue by Shenao ZHANG, Yongwei WANG, Lijue WANG, Junwei HAN

“…The following future development steps for tainted acid gypsum residues are proposed: 1) continue to develop green and efficient valuable metal element recovery technology, and achieve large-scale industrial application; 2) strengthen the exploration of synergistic use technology between tainted acid gypsum residues and other solid wastes, and synergistically treat gypsum slag with other solid wastes in combination with other methods such as flotation to improve resource utilization; 3) optimize the application of efficient complexing and precipitating agents to reduce gypsum production and its pollutant content at the source through acidic wastewater treatment process regulation; and 4) increase the attention given to studies of the longevity of a gypsum slag curing body to prevent the occurrence of an “anti-solution” and other problems.…”
