Identifying freshwater wetland suitable habitat through a hydrological-biological connectivity framework: A case study of Naoli River wetlands, China by Daiji Wan, Jian Yang, Xuan Liu, Qiwei Liu, Baolong Chen, Yanhui Chen, Dandan Zhao, Jiping Liu

“…The results showed that (1) the hydrological connectivity of wetlands within the Naoli River Reserve showed a fluctuating and decreasing trend, and the maximum distance difference between the high and low connectivity periods was 26 km. (2) Waterbirds and macroinvertebrates had a larger area of suitable habitat at moderate hydrological connectivity. At the same time, fish and phytoplankton showed a decrease in the area of suitable habitat with decreasing hydrological connectivity. (3) Hydrological connectivity significantly regulates a high-suitability habitat, and suitable hydrological connectivity increases habitat area by about 35 %. (4) The restoration of hydrological connectivity and suitable habitats should be emphasized in the Trans-Qixing River area, and wetland biodiversity should be maintained according to the hydrological connectivity status in the mainstream area of the Naoli River and the Inner-Qixing River area.…”
