Abstract

This chapter explores the ecological significance and management challenges of wetlands in the Yellow River basin, focusing on the source region, middle reaches, and lower reaches. The source region wetlands, part of the world's largest alpine wetland system, are vital for biodiversity and carbon storage but face threats from overgrazing and climate change. In the middle reaches, wetlands have significantly shrunk due to climate drying and human activities, with recent efforts focusing on artificial wetland construction. The lower reaches, primarily deltaic wetlands, are crucial for bird migration and breeding but are threatened by reduced river flow, urbanization, and pollution. The chapter highlights the importance of regulating water discharge, implementing conservation measures, and creating artificial wetlands to restore and protect these vital ecosystems. The text concludes with a call for integrated management strategies to address the complex challenges facing wetlands in the Yellow River basin.
