Water quality in relation to land use in the Junshan Lake watershed and water quality predictions

Changes in human-dominated spatial patterns of land use are the main driving factors of water quality evolution in watersheds, and the quantitative impact of land use changes on water quality is currently a focus of lake ecology research. Using the Junshan Lake Basin as a study area, this paper quan...
