Abstract: The Gezhouba Reservoir (GR) and Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) are the two largest water-storage projects in the middle reach of the Yangtze River. The impoundments of the reservoirs have changed natural flow-regimes in the ...

Abstract: Hydrological changes of the Ili River were analyzed concerning the changes of annual runoff and its distribution features within a year measured by coefficient of variation and concentration degree. Abrupt changes were ...

Abstract: Flow complexity, which means the degree of uncertainty or the rate of information production of a flow series, is analyzed for the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Sample entropy (SampEn) is applied to measure flow ...

Abstract: Hydrological parameters are significant both in hydrological events and ecological conservation. The implications of hydrological statistical parameters in river ecology were investigated by considering three basic parameters, ...

Abstract: Reservoirs play an important role in modifying the natural hydrological regime. Reservoir-induced changes in flow fluctuations at monthly and hourly scales were analyzed through a case study of a tributary of the Yangtze ...

Abstract: Poyang Lake is the largest freshwater lake in China and is internationally recognized as an important lacustrine and wetland ecosystem with abundant biodiversity. Since 2003, the average lake water level has significantly ...
