Abstract
Embankments and groundsills were removed as part of a restoration strategy based on Nature-based Solutions (NbS) for river rewilding to restore natural stream conditions and ecological functioning of Zhongguakeng Creek. The research employed the 5- Level River Morphology Classification to analyze the watershed characteristics and established a monitoring system to assess the restoration efforts. Numerical simulations confirmed the effectiveness
of these measures, particularly during flood events, where they enhanced ecosystem resilience and promoted biodiversity.The Zhongguakeng case study aligns with global standards for NbS, highlighting the efficacy of NbS in environmental restoration and its ability to engage local communities in ecological protection. This case also provides practical support for promoting NbS in Taiwan and globally, demonstrating its potential benefits in addressing the challenges of climate change.
