Influence of disaster risk,exposure and water quality on vulnerability of surface water resources under a changing climate in the Haihe River basin

A function model was used to quantify the vulnerability of the Haihe River basin on the basis of sensitivity, adaptability of the water resources system, exposure and drought disaster risk. Surface water resources vulnerability was assessed for a benchmark year (2000) using the function and indicator models and for modelled future climate scenarios using only the function assessment model. In the results, surface water resources vulnerability was greater when exposure, disaster risk and water quality factors were considered. Both models gave the result that vulnerability of water resources in study area was high; all the regions were rated ‘highly’, ‘strongly’, or ‘extremely’ fragile.     

水文变异下淮河长吻鮠生境变化与适宜流量组合推荐

以淮河干流鱼类长吻鮠为保护目标,建立长吻鮠分时期生态需求与流量之间的概念性模型。对FLOWS法进行改进,加入水文变异前后长吻鮠生态环境对比分析,根据分析结果推荐一组适于长吻鮠生长繁殖的流量组合。结果表明,在环境流量成分的对比分析中,变异前的高脉冲流量历时长、发生时间合适,变异后发生洪水的频率增高,变异前的流量更适于长吻鮠的生长繁殖;在相关水力参数满足程度的对比分析中,在长吻鮠生长繁殖的各个时期,变异前的流量条件均优于变异后。选取变异前的平水年1970年的流量作为基础,推荐适宜流量组合,即产卵期的流量为545~1 212m~3/s,幼鱼索饵期应大于1 750 m~3/s,越冬期应大于等于74 m~3/s。该研究可为保护淮河珍稀物种,为淮河生态调度提供依据。
