Yellow River Harnessing and Sustainable Water Resources Development
This paper deals with the strategies for the Yellow River harnessing based on the systematical analysis. It is found that the high concentration of sediment is responsible for the phenomenon of hanging river, and the river basin suffers the sharp temporal and spatial variation in water resources, which results in flood threat and dry-up river bed alternatively, consequently the river has had a major impact on Chinas economical development and ecological system. To ease the water shortage and secure a balanced water and sediment, this paper proposes the methods including: ? to construct ocean reservoirs to retain the flood water in the river mouth; ? to install of soft pipes along the river course to enhance the water velocity for flushing the sediment and for stabilizing the main channel. The preliminary study shows that these two methods could greatly mitigate the flood disasters and quench the thirsty in the basin, its effect could be more apparent when the basin water management scheme incorporates the South - to - North Water Diversion Project.
