Land-use change refers to a change in how a particular area of land is utilised or managed by humans. Land-cover change refers to a change in some continuous features of the land, such as vegetation type, soil conditions, and so on. For the purpose of identifying change-vulnerable areas and creating sustainable ecosystem services, mapping and quantifying the state of land use/land cover (LULC) changes and change-causing factors are crucial. The present research utilizes a geographic information system (GIS) and remote sensing (RS) techniques to categorise and identify changes in a Murredu watershed in Telangana state, India, between 1996 and 2019. Five major LULC categories (agricultural land, forest, barren land, built-up area, and waterbodies) from satellite images of 1996 to 2019 were mapped. The maximum likelihood approach was used to supervise the classification process, and high-resolution Google Earth Pro was used to evaluate the accuracy of the classified map. The accuracy of the mapping was evaluated using the error matrix and Kappa statistics. Overall classification accuracy for the classified image of 2019 was found to be 90 % with overall kappa statistics of 85.98%. From these findings, change detection analysis shows that the area used for agricultural land, barren land, forest, built-up areas, and waterbodies has increased by 5.17%, 3.39%, 0.84%, and 0.26%, respectively, between 1996 and 2019. The forest area has decreased by 9.67% at the same time. Therefore, this research anticipates that the findings might provide information to planners, land managers, and decision-makers for the sustainable management and development of the natural resource.

土地利用变化是指人类利用或管理特定土地的方式发生变化。土地覆盖变化是指土地的一些连续特征的变化,如植被类型、土壤条件等。为了识别易受变化影响的地区和创造可持续的生态系统服务,绘制和量化土地利用/土地覆盖的变化状态和引起变化的因素至关重要。本研究利用地理信息系统(GIS)和遥感(RS)技术对1996年至2019年间印度特伦甘纳州Murredu流域的变化进行了分类和识别。从1996年至2019年的卫星图像中,绘制了五个主要的LULC类别(农业用地、森林、荒地、建成区和水体)。最大似然法用于监督分类过程,高分辨率Google Earth Pro用于评估分类地图的准确性。使用误差矩阵和Kappa统计量来评估映射的准确性。2019年分类图像的总体分类准确率为90%,总体kappa统计数据为85.98%。根据这些发现,变化检测分析显示,1996年至2019年间,农业用地、荒地、森林、建成区和水体的面积分别增加了5.17%、3.39%、0.84%和0.26%。森林面积同时减少了9.67%。因此,本研究预计,这些发现可能会为规划者、土地管理者和决策者提供自然资源可持续管理和开发的信息。

Crabs are the most dominant groups in mangrove ecosystem and play a vital role in building and sustaining the structure and function of the mangrove ecosystems. However, a systematic evaluation of global research status of mangrove crabs is still lacking. Here, a bibliometric analysis based on the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) was carried out to provide insights into research activities, tendencies, and challenges of the mangrove crabs from 1980 to 2016. The results showed that the average annual output of the publications was low. Brazil took a leading position out of the 63 countries/territories with the largest number of publications, followed by USA, Australia, China, and Germany. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology was the most popular journal. The reproductive ecology (e.g., reproduction), population ecology (e.g., population structure), and their relationship were the mainstream. The estuarine ecosystem and the method of stable isotope received ecologists’ favor. Behavioral ecology (e.g., bioturbation), ecosystem function (e.g., carbon), and the ecological effect among them were the main issues in this field. Biodiversity was a new hot topic. Brazil, Australia, USA, China, and Kenya were the top five hot regions among the 53 hot countries on a global scale. Different regions have different hot topics. The breeding ecology was the most popular theme in the Americas region, the ecological effects of crabs were the most hotstops in the Africa-East Asia region and the East and South Asia-Oceania region. The challenges of the development were not comprehensive and uneven on a global scale. There was a certain number of countries with mangrove distributions were still outside this field, such as most of the western and northeastern countries of Africa (e.g., Angola), some Central American countries (e.g., Guatemala), and some western and southeast Asian countries (e.g., Cambodia). Furthermore, we found that some topics were ignored or lagged in each territory. Our results highlight that the global research status of mangrove crab is still at a relatively backward stage, and regional development is extremely unbalanced.

螃蟹是红树林生态系统中最具优势的类群,对红树林生态系统结构和功能的建立和维持起着至关重要的作用。然而,对全球红树林蟹类的研究现状仍缺乏系统的评价。基于科学引文索引扩展(SCI-E),对1980 - 2016年红树林蟹类的研究活动、趋势和挑战进行了文献计量分析。结果表明,我国期刊年平均产出量较低。在发表论文最多的63个国家/地区中,巴西排名第一,其次是美国、澳大利亚、中国和德国。《实验海洋生物学与生态学杂志》是最受欢迎的杂志。生殖生态学(如繁殖)、种群生态学(如种群结构)及其关系是主流。河口生态系统和稳定同位素方法受到生态学家的青睐。行为生态学(如生物扰动)、生态系统功能(如碳)及其之间的生态效应是该领域的主要研究内容。生物多样性是一个新的热点话题。在全球53个热点国家中,巴西、澳大利亚、美国、中国和肯尼亚是排名前五的热点地区。不同的地区有不同的热点话题。美洲地区最关注的是养殖生态,非洲-东亚地区和东亚-南亚-大洋洲地区最关注的是蟹类生态效应。发展的挑战在全球范围内并不全面和不平衡。有一定数量的红树林分布的国家仍在这一领域之外,如非洲西部和东北部的大部分国家(如安哥拉)、中美洲的一些国家(如危地马拉)和一些西部和东南亚国家(如柬埔寨)。此外,我们发现在每个领域都有一些主题被忽略或滞后。研究结果表明,全球红树林蟹的研究现状仍处于相对落后的阶段,区域发展极不平衡。

We explored the potential for functional processes maintenance principles to be applied in coastal restoration. Greater bay areas are located in the transition zone between land and sea. Coastal wetlands play a key role in the ecological environment construction of greater bay areas. Due to the dual effects of high-intensity human activities and climate change, coastal wetlands in greater bay areas have suffered varying degrees of damage, including reduced area, habitat degradation, and impaired ecological functions. However, the research progress and development trend of restoration of damaged coastal wetland ecosystems has not yet been revealed, and the application theory of functional processes in coastal restoration is still unclear. Based on extensive literature research, our study reviewed the mechanisms and types of coastal wetland ecosystem restoration in greater bay areas. Coastal wetland ecosystem restoration technologies and methods are mainly based on the biological, hydrological, and chemical processes in greater bay areas. The current research progress and existing deficiencies of coastal wetland ecosystem restoration in greater bay areas are clarified. Combining years of research background in the coastal wetland field, focusing on the importance and criticality of coastal wetland functional processes to maintaining ecosystem functions, the main future research trends are proposed, which will solve the principal theory facing the restoration of coastal wetland ecosystems in greater bay areas. Our study will promote the application of new concepts and new techniques of coastal wetland restoration nationwide, and improve the overall level of ecological restoration in coastal wetland.

我们探索了功能过程维护原则在海岸恢复中的应用潜力。大湾区位于陆地和海洋的过渡地带。滨海湿地在大湾区生态环境建设中具有重要作用。由于高强度人类活动和气候变化的双重影响,大湾区滨海湿地遭受了不同程度的破坏,包括面积减少、生境退化和生态功能受损。然而,受损滨海湿地生态系统修复的研究进展和发展趋势尚未揭示,功能过程在滨海恢复中的应用理论尚不明确。在大量文献研究的基础上,综述了大湾区滨海湿地生态系统恢复的机制和类型。海岸带湿地生态系统修复技术和方法主要基于大湾区的生物、水文和化学过程。阐述了大湾区滨海湿地生态系统修复的研究现状及存在的不足。结合多年滨海湿地领域的研究背景,着眼于滨海湿地功能过程对生态系统功能维持的重要性和关键性,提出了未来主要的研究方向,解决了大湾区滨海湿地生态系统修复面临的主要理论问题。本研究将促进滨海湿地修复新理念、新技术在全国范围内的应用,提高滨海湿地生态修复的整体水平。

Grasslands are among one of the largest terrestrial biomes in the world, suffering severe threat from ongoing degradation. Grassland degradation not only alter terrestrial biogeochemical processes but also have strong potentials to affect nutrient stoichiometry and limitation in aquatic ecosystems. Moreover, the impacts of grassland degradation are likely to differentially affect the cycling of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) in the linked terrestrial-aquatic ecosystems in watersheds, leading to multiple possible scenarios of nutrient stoichiometry and limitation in soil, stream, and lake ecosystems. However, we lack of integrated studies to consider biogeochemical consequences of grassland degradation transferring from soil to stream, and finally to the lake ecosystems. An integrated case study was conducted in the Qinghai Lake Watershed on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to reveal the influences of grassland degradation on soil, stream, and lake ecosystems from the perspectives of C:N:P stoichiometry , nutrient limitation, and bacterial communities. This case study demonstrated a clear cascading influence from terrestrial to aquatic ecosystem, that grassland degradation differentially influenced N and P in soil with soil N decreased but P did not change (N:P decreased in soil), influencing the nutrients delivered to streams with streamwater N decreased but P increased (N:P decreased in stream), alleviating P limitation of stream biofilms which are sensitive to P variation, and ultimately stimulating phytoplankton growth in the P-limited Qinghai Lake. This case study supported one scenario of biogeochemical consequences of grassland degradation, and other scenarios might be also possible in watersheds that have different geochemistry background, different landcover, and/or different lake trophic status. Integrated studies considering the coupled terrestrial-aquatic ecosystems can provide insights for protection and management of grassland watersheds in the rapidly changing world.

草原是世界上最大的陆地生物群落之一,受到持续退化的严重威胁。草地退化不仅改变了陆地生物地球化学过程,而且对水生生态系统的营养化学计量和限制也有很强的影响。此外,草地退化的影响可能会对流域陆水生态系统中碳(C)、氮(N)和磷(P)的循环产生不同的影响,从而导致土壤、河流和湖泊生态系统中营养化学计量和限制的多种可能情景。然而,我们缺乏考虑草地退化从土壤到河流并最终到湖泊生态系统的生物地球化学后果的综合研究。以青藏高原青海湖流域为研究对象,从C:N:P化学计量学、养分限制和细菌群落等方面揭示了草地退化对土壤、河流和湖泊生态系统的影响。本案例研究表明,从陆地生态系统到水生生态系统存在明显的级联效应,草地退化对土壤N和P的影响存在差异,土壤N减少而P不变(土壤N:P减少),对河流养分的影响存在差异,河流水体N减少而P增加(河流中N:P减少),缓解了对P变化敏感的河流生物膜对P的限制。并最终刺激了磷含量有限的青海湖浮游植物的生长。本案例研究支持草地退化的生物地球化学后果的一种情景,并且在具有不同地球化学背景、不同土地覆盖和/或不同湖泊营养状况的流域也可能存在其他情景。考虑陆水耦合生态系统的综合研究可以为快速变化的世界中草地流域的保护和管理提供见解。

Understanding land use and land cover (LULC) change dynamics and their contributing factors are critical for developing sustainable land management strategies. Therefore, this paper assesses the trends and patterns of LULC changes and their drivers in the Migori River watershed in Kenya from 1980 to 2020. The spatial analysis is based on remote sensing data based on the maximum likelihood classifier algorithm; whereas the analysis of the drivers is based on index-based ranking and logistic regression of 318 households’ survey data. The results show that between 1980 and 2020, the watershed experienced a considerable decline in shrub lands by 40.63% (−235.97 km2), grasslands by 84.86% (−59.14 km2), forests by 52.90% (−98.36 km2), water by 82.03% (−39.27 km2) and wetlands by 38.44% (−3.69 km2); whereas cultivated land, bare land and built-up areas expanded over the same period by 34.25% (+347.42 km2), 132.28% (+60.95 km2) and 461.20% (+25.32 km2), respectively. The results of the household survey revealed that the perceptions of the locals tended to corroborate these observed LULC patterns obtained from spatial analysis, with 60.50% (n = 192) of the respondents reporting a significant expansion in agricultural land use (at p < 0.05), and 75.80% (n = 241) observing a significant decline in forest areas in the watershed (at p < 0.05). Fuel wood collection, timber/poles production, agricultural expansion, population pressure, and high poverty are the major drivers of these LULC changes. The findings also revealed that educational level significantly influenced the survey participants’ perceptions concerning these drivers. The paper concludes that the watershed’s natural landscapes have been undergoing destruction at the expense of human settlement and infrastructural developments driven by anthropogenic activities. Therefore, there is a need, among others, for land use zoning to regulate conflicting land uses on the watershed between settlement, conservation, and agricultural lands.

了解土地利用和土地覆盖(LULC)变化动态及其影响因素对于制定可持续土地管理战略至关重要。因此,本文对1980 - 2020年肯尼亚米戈里河流域土地利用价值变化的趋势、格局及其驱动因素进行了研究。空间分析是基于最大似然分类器算法的遥感数据;而驱动因素的分析则是基于318户调查数据的指数排序和logistic回归。结果表明:1980 ~ 2020年,流域内灌木林地减少40.63% (- 235.97 km2),草地减少84.86% (- 59.14 km2),森林减少52.90% (- 98.36 km2),水体减少82.03% (- 39.27 km2),湿地减少38.44% (- 3.69 km2);同期耕地、裸地和建成区面积分别增长34.25% (+347.42 km2)、132.28% (+60.95 km2)和461.20% (+25.32 km2)。家庭调查的结果显示,当地人的看法倾向于证实从空间分析中获得的这些观察到的LULC模式,60.50% (n = 192)的受访者报告了农业用地的显著扩张(p <0.05), 75.80% (n = 241)观察到流域森林面积显著下降(p <0.05)。燃料木材收集、木材/木杆生产、农业扩张、人口压力和高度贫困是这些LULC变化的主要驱动因素。研究结果还显示,受教育程度显著影响调查参与者对这些司机的看法。该论文的结论是,该流域的自然景观正在遭受破坏,其代价是人类活动驱动的人类住区和基础设施发展。因此,除其他外,有必要进行土地使用分区,以规范定居点、保护和农业用地之间分水岭上的冲突土地使用。

Extreme climate events, such as hurricanes and tropical storms, can cause acute instability of the hydrologic cycle, thereby threatening the sustainability and resiliency of an authentic watershed ecosystem’s services. A 2011 extreme climate event, known as Hurricane/Tropical Storm Irene (Irene), imposed an acute effect on the quality of the ecosystem services in Vermont. This risk assessment of the Otter Creek Basin (the Basin) watershed restoration in central Vermont included an analysis of the conceptual site model, key elements of the strategic plan, and potential ecological outcomes. The outcome of the ecological restoration of the Basin is dependent upon an adaptive management strategy, which is implemented through various regulatory policies. Thereby, a systematic literature review (SLR) of regulatory milestone documents released between 1998 and 2019 was completed to characterize and assess the Basin’s strategic planning efforts and forecasts. To operationalize this study, a replicable methodology was utilized by using a conceptual site model to assess and forecast data trends. Analysis of the data trends resulted in an ecological risk assessment of the 2019 tactical basin plan (TBP) that forecasted 2021–2025 restoration activities. Currently in a transition phase as a hybrid ecosystem while undergoing restoration activities, the Basin’s restoration strategy could result in the re-establishment of the watershed as an authentic ecosystem, which can self-regulate with appropriate biodiversity and ecosystem function based on past history. However, without restoration and resiliency, a poorly managed strategy could result in a decreased classification toward a novel, no-analogue ecosystem, where keystone species are lost and ecosystem functions are highly altered. Therefore, a successful restoration is essential to elevate the Basin from a hybrid ecosystem by restoring its authentic characteristics and regaining its self-regulated natural ecosystem services.

极端气候事件,如飓风和热带风暴,可能造成水文循环的严重不稳定,从而威胁到真正的流域生态系统服务的可持续性和弹性。2011年的一次极端气候事件,被称为飓风/热带风暴艾琳(Irene),对佛蒙特州的生态系统服务质量造成了严重影响。对佛蒙特州中部水獭溪流域恢复的风险评估包括对概念性场地模型、战略计划的关键要素和潜在生态结果的分析。流域生态恢复的结果取决于通过各种监管政策实施的适应性管理策略。因此,完成了1998年至2019年发布的监管里程碑文件的系统文献综述(SLR),以描述和评估盆地的战略规划工作和预测。为了实施这项研究,采用了一种可复制的方法,使用概念站点模型来评估和预测数据趋势。通过对数据趋势的分析,对2019年战术流域计划(TBP)进行了生态风险评估,预测了2021-2025年的恢复活动。目前,该流域正处于混合生态系统的过渡阶段,同时正在进行恢复活动,该流域的恢复战略可以使流域重新成为一个真正的生态系统,该生态系统可以根据过去的历史进行自我调节,具有适当的生物多样性和生态系统功能。然而,如果没有恢复和弹性,管理不善的策略可能导致分类下降,走向一个新的、没有类似物的生态系统,在那里,关键物种丢失,生态系统功能高度改变。因此,成功的恢复是将盆地从混合生态系统中提升出来的关键,通过恢复其真实特征和恢复其自我调节的自然生态系统服务。

Globalization and industrialization lead to the corresponding increase of effluents discharged into the nearest water bodies. The persistence of pollution in the ecological system has led to uncertainty about living habitats; drinking water safety has become a societal issue attached to great importance. As we increasingly become aware of environmental problems and their impacts on human life, we realize that current problem-solving using contemporary water treatment techniques cannot provide adequate solutions owing to their advantages and disadvantages. Nature-based solutions are required as they are the best alternative for treating polluted water. Conventional coagulation is not a new technique that has been utilized in ancient times and works as a sustainable solution for water treatment and reduces the costs associated with the other treatment methods. Even though these techniques have been practised since ancient times, there is still a need to explore more plants to identify coagulating properties. The current study aims to do the phytochemical and physicochemical screening of the plant-based materials to identify them as coagulants and compare their efficiencies with the conventional inorganic and animal-based coagulants; out of 18 plant-based materials, Moringa oleifera, Manihot esculenta and Pisum Sativum removed turbidity up to 100% are subjected to the FTIR, XRD, and SEM to analyze the functionalized groups responsible for the polymer formation and identify the interaction between the coagulator's and suspended particles. The results showed that plant-based materials could be promising solutions for water quality challenges.

全球化和工业化导致排放到最近水体的污水相应增加。生态系统中污染的持续存在导致了生活栖息地的不确定性;饮用水安全已成为一个备受重视的社会问题。随着我们越来越意识到环境问题及其对人类生活的影响,我们意识到目前使用当代水处理技术解决问题的方法由于其优点和缺点而无法提供足够的解决方案。基于自然的解决方案是必需的,因为它们是处理污水的最佳选择。传统混凝并不是一项古老的新技术,它是水处理的可持续解决方案,并降低了与其他处理方法相关的成本。尽管这些技术自古以来就在实践,但仍然需要探索更多的植物来确定凝固特性。目前的研究旨在对植物基材料进行植物化学和物理化学筛选,以确定它们是混凝剂,并将它们与传统的无机和动物基混凝剂的效率进行比较;在18种植物基材料中,Moringa oleifera, Manihot esculenta和Pisum Sativum去除浊度高达100%,并进行FTIR, XRD和SEM分析负责聚合物形成的官能团,并确定混凝剂和悬浮颗粒之间的相互作用。结果表明,植物基材料可能是解决水质挑战的有希望的解决方案。

The effect of the 1/10 the application rates of either copper sulfate, temephos, glyphosate, or bifenthrin on some biochemical and genotoxic markers of the Egyptian toads, Sclerophrys regularis, exposed for 96 h under conditions similar to the real situation was investigated. The results illustrated that, brain acetylcholinesterase (AChE) was significantly inhibited following temephos treatment, while the enzyme activities markedly increased following either glyphosate or bifenthrin exposure. Liver glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity was inhibited following either copper sulfate or bifenthrin, while the activity increased following glyphosate treatment. Also, the data illustrated that, The level of glutathione reduced (GSH) in liver and the activities of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), transaminasaes (AST and ALT), and phosphatases (ACP and ALP) in liver and serum showed significant increases following all the treatments and bifenthrin was the potent one. Regarding the genotoxicity of the tested pesticides, the number of structural aberrations induced by the different treatments was enumerated in the present study. It was found that all the tested pesticides significantly increased either the frequency of abnormalities or the number of polychromatic erythrocytes (PCE) per 1000 cells (the frequency of micronucleus, MN) compared to the negative control, where bifenthrin and temephos were found to be more potent than cyclophosphamide (positive control) to induce these structural aberrations. According to the present results, the tested concentrations of the tested pesticides could lead to a collapse of cellular homeostasis and changes in the biochemical and genetic parameters in the Egyptian toads which can be considered as indicators of environmental pollution by pesticides.

研究了硫酸铜、双硫磷、草甘膦和联苯菊酯分别以1/10的施用量对埃及硬化病(sfrfrys regularis)暴露96 h的生化和遗传毒性指标的影响。结果表明,双硫磷处理显著抑制了脑乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE)活性,而草甘膦和联苯菊酯处理均显著提高了AChE活性。硫酸铜和联苯菊酯均抑制肝脏谷胱甘肽- s -转移酶(GST)活性,而草甘膦处理后GST活性升高。结果表明,各处理后肝脏谷胱甘肽还原酶(GSH)水平、肝脏和血清乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)、转氨酶(AST和ALT)、磷酸酶(ACP和ALP)活性均显著升高,其中联苯菊酯的作用最强。对于被试农药的遗传毒性,本研究列举了不同处理引起的结构畸变数。结果发现,与阴性对照相比,所有被测农药均显著增加了异常的频率或每1000个细胞中多染红细胞(PCE)的数量(微核频率,MN),其中发现联苯菊酯和双硫磷比环磷酰胺(阳性对照)更有效地诱导这些结构畸变。根据目前的研究结果,被试农药的浓度可导致埃及蟾蜍细胞内稳态的崩溃和生化和遗传参数的变化,这些参数可被认为是农药污染环境的指标。

Ecological processes and distribution of biodiversity within river floodplains are driven by the hydrological regime of the area. The relationship between fish abundance/diversity and surface water quality at four impact points of the Sashadanga oxbow lake was examined based on hydrological connectivity (distance of lake sections from parent channel; density of buffer vegetation and hydrological phases of seasons). Fish sample populations (n = 1440) belonging to 10 orders showed greater numerical abundance in the pre-and post-flooding phases. Oxbow sites proximal to the parent channel showed higher comprehensive pollution index (CPI), higher dominance and lower species evenness during the pre-monsoon (minor flooding) and vice versa during the monsoon and post-monsoon (greater flooding periods). Diversity descriptors using curve/asymptote based on Hill’s numbers indicate significant site-specific fish diversity within the oxbow lake at different seasons. Discriminant analysis revealed that change in temperature, turbidity and concentration of inorganic nitrogen were significant predictors in differentiating the quality of the different sites of the lake. Principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that the relative abundance of each species order across sites was significantly influenced by changes in seasons and physicochemical parameters, and showed a weak association with the density of buffer vegetation at sites. Depending on the distance of oxbow areas to the parent channel, the combination of periodic flooding, riparian buffer and lake morphology define the degree of hydrological connectivity which in turn affects the composition and abundance of fish communities at different points of the lake.

河流洪泛区的生态过程和生物多样性分布是由该地区的水文状况驱动的。基于水文连通性(湖泊断面与母河道的距离)分析了沙沙当加牛弓湖4个冲击点的鱼类丰度/多样性与地表水水质的关系;缓冲植被密度与季节水文阶段)。属于10目的鱼类样本种群(n = 1440)在洪水前和洪水后表现出更大的数量丰度。在季风前(小洪水)和季风后(大洪水),靠近母河道的牛弓样地表现出较高的综合污染指数(CPI)、较高的优势度和较低的物种均匀度。基于希尔数的曲线/渐近线的多样性描述符表明,牛轭湖不同季节的特定地点鱼类多样性显著。判别分析表明,温度、浑浊度和无机氮浓度的变化是区分湖泊不同地点水质的重要预测因子。主成分分析(PCA)表明,各样地各物种阶相对丰度受季节和理化参数变化的影响显著,与缓冲植被密度的相关性较弱。根据牛弓区到母河道的距离,周期性洪水、河岸缓冲带和湖泊形态的结合决定了水文连通性的程度,这反过来又影响了湖泊不同地点鱼类群落的组成和丰度。

The Rhodamine 6G (Rh6G), a cationic dye is actively being used as a potentially tracing dye in the field of biotechnology for immunological studies. The peel powder of Litchi Chinensis was employed in native condition to explore the sorption properties at different experimental conditions like initial dye concentration, contact time, dosage of biosorbent, temperature and pH. The detailed characteristics of Litchi chinensis peel before and after adsorption were performed by using sophisticated instruments like SEM-EDX, FTIR, BET and XRD. From the adsorption studies it was observed that the equilibrium data followed Pseudo-second order rate kinetics and Freundlich isotherm. The Langmuir adsorption capacity (Qo) was found to be 6.66 mg/g, and the adsorption process was spontaneous and exothermic in nature (based on ΔG, ΔH and ΔS values). All the laboratory experiments proven to be an evident for the Litchi chinensis peel as an efficient biosorbent for the removal of Rhodamine 6G in the liquid/solid phase system.
