Ecological risks in downstream lakes exacerbated by the three Gorges reservoir by Xinxin Chen, Yaxin Guo, Junhong Zhang, Xiao Han, Weiya Huang, Yao Yue

“…In this paper, the ecological impacts of TGD on downstream large lakes are explored in terms of hydrological alteration degree, biodiversity, connectivity, and ecological surplus and ecological deficit by building a 1/2-dimensional nested model to simulate the hydrological processes with and without the TGD from 2008 to 2011. The results showed that (1) TGD storage led to a decrease in the number of high pulses at downstream stations, resulting in wetland degradation in the riverine region; (2) the SI (Shannon’s diversity index) based on hydrological calculations became smaller, indicating that the downstream biodiversity showed a decreasing trend; (3) the diversion ratio and the confluence ratio of Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River decreased at the same time, and the connectivity decreased, which would lead to an increase in the degree and frequency of droughts during the dry season;(4) after the regulation of the TGD, the low-risk months were transformed into medium-risk months of the Dongting Lake basin, indicating a deterioration of the ecological situation in this region. …”
