Evaluation of Flood Impact of Waterway Project Based on One-Dimensional Hydrodynamic Model ——A Case Study of 2000-ton Laibin-Guiping Waterway Project of Datengxia Gorge by XIE Tianyun, WEI Lusi, LI Yi, ZHOU Shunxuan, LIN Xinyi

“…A one-dimensional hydrodynamic model is used to accurately and systematically evaluate the flood impact of the 2000-ton waterway project with a total length of 193.876 km from Laibin to Guiping.The model is calibrated and validated,and the changes in the water level of the channel are observed.On this basis,this study analyzes and evaluates the impact of waterway regulation and construction on the channel flood discharge,hydrological station observation,bridge operation,water intake,and other aspects.The results show that the project implementation leads to a drop in the water level in the project section,which has an adverse effect on the water level observation scheme of the hydrological station.Hence,it is necessary to take corresponding remedial measures such as supplementary monitoring.Moreover,the result indicates that it has no adverse impact on bridges,water intakes,flood discharge and drainage,and irrigation.The assessment results can provide a rich and detailed basis for the approval and management of the water administration department.…”

Impact of Climate Change and Human Activities on Runoff and Drought in Manas River Basin by XIAO Senyuan, SU Jun, YANG Guang, LIU Bing, ZHANG Di, QIU Zehao, LUO Yajie, HUANG Jingjing

“…On the basis of the monthly precipitation and runoff data of Manas River Basin from 1956 to 2020,the Mann-Kendall nonparametric test method,double cumulative curve method,and standardized runoff index (SRI) are adopted to reveal the interannual variation trend of watershed runoff and quantitatively describe the contribution proportion of climate change and human activities to watershed runoff change.In addition,the characteristics of seasonal drought change are explored under the influence of climate change and human activities.The results indicate that:① the annual runoff of Manas River Basin shows an upward trend,and a significant mutation occurred in 1995;② Climate change is the main factor leading to the increase in runoff in Manas River Basin,and the contribution rates of climate change and human activities to the increase in runoff are 56.73% and 43.37%,respectively;③ On a seasonal scale,in contrast with the impact of climate change,human activities reduce the frequency of drought events in the basin and improve the drought situation in winter.In the meanwhile,however,farmland irrigation in spring consumes enormous water resources,which results in the trend of drought in the basin in spring.…”

Effect of cooperative membership on farmers’ technology adoption based on the mediating effects of technology cognition by Geling Wang, Miao Xu

“…The results show that cooperative membership can promote the adoption of water-saving irrigation technology (WSIT). Significant between-group differences exist in the effect of cooperative membership on farmers' decision to adopt WSIT such that the promotion effect is greater among farmers with larger irrigated land areas, farmers with fewer years of farming experience, and farmers with lower education levels. …”

Analysis of Spatiotemporal Dynamic Characteristics on Potential Evapotranspiration and Water Budget in Hebei Province by ZHENG Defeng, ZHAN Shiyao, CAO Yongqiang

“…The spatiotemporal dynamic characteristics of regional potential evapotranspiration can lay a theoretical foundation for regional rational crop planting and scientific agricultural irrigation.In the context of global warming and increasing evapotranspiration rates,the Penman-Monteith equation is used to calculate the potential evapotranspiration (ET₀) and water budget (K) of Hebei Province from1967 to 2019 according to the actual meteorological observation data of twelve weather stations in Hebei Province,and the characteristics of their spatiotemporal dynamic variations are analyzed.On this basis,the analysis method of the Morlet wavelet function is introduced for the cycle analysis of ET₀ and K in 53 years.The results show that ET₀ has obvious zonal characteristics,and it is generally on the rise while K is on the decline during this period.Moreover,the evapotranspiration variations vary with seasons:ET₀ shows an upward trend in spring,autumn,and winter but a downward trend in summer.The cycle of K has the most significant oscillation at 35 a,and the scope of the oscillation is prominent in summer and autumn.Therefore,obvious changes in seasonal characteristics of Hebei Province have a great impact on K.The results can provide a reliable theoretical basis for agricultural water-saving and planting structure adjustment in Hebei Province.…”
