文摘Collaborative changes in the hydro-sediment regime and erosional base level are vital factors that influence the evolution of wandering rivers.In the wandering Xiaobeiganliu reach of the Middle Yellow River(MYR),the rapidly decreasing sediment discharge and lowering base level,i.e.,the Tongguan elevation,have resulted in new features of thalweg migration in river morphology.In this work,on the basis of topographic measurements of the reach from 2003–2021,the thalweg migration distance and intensity were calculated at both the section scale and reach scale.The results revealed that the annual sediment discharge decreased by 72%from 1986–2002,and the reach exhibited sustained scouring from deposition,leading to the Tongguan elevation decreasing by 1.69 m compared with that in 2002.Accordingly,the distance and intensity of thalweg migration have been reduced to varying degrees in both section and reach scales.The maximum section-scale thalweg migration distance was reduced by 11%,whereas the average thalweg migration distance and intensity at the reach scale decreased by 14%and 43%,respectively.During this sustained scouring period,the fluvial erosion intensity at the reach scale increased as the sediment discharge decreased.However,because the base level remained high,riverbed undercutting was deeply limited,which exacerbated lateral erosion of the bank and floodplain,enhancing thalweg migration.Flow-sediment regulation and training can be coupled to increase undercutting efficiency in the main channel and to protect banks from lateral erosion in river reach management.

文摘The backwater effect caused by tributary inflow can significantly elevate the water level profile upstream of a confluence point.However,the influence of mainstream and confluence discharges on the backwater effect in a river reach remains unclear.In this study,various hydrological data collected from the Jingjiang Reach of the Yangtze River in China were statistically analyzed to determine the backwater degree and range with three representative mainstream discharges.The results indicated that the backwater degree increased with mainstream discharge,and a positive relationship was observed between the runoff ratio and backwater degree at specific representative mainstream discharges.Following the operation of the Three Gorges Project,the backwater effect in the Jingjiang Reach diminished.For instance,mean backwater degrees for low,moderate,and high mainstream discharges were recorded as 0.83 m,1.61 m,and 2.41 m during the period from 1990 to 2002,whereas these values decreased to 0.30 m,0.95 m,and 2.08 m from 2009 to 2020.The backwater range extended upstream as mainstream discharge increased from 7000 m3/s to 30000 m3/s.Moreover,a random forest-based machine learning model was used to quantify the backwater effect with varying mainstream and confluence discharges,accounting for the impacts of mainstream discharge,confluence discharge,and channel degradation in the Jingjiang Reach.At the Jianli Hydrological Station,a decrease in mainstream discharge during flood seasons resulted in a 7%–15%increase in monthly mean backwater degree,while an increase in mainstream discharge during dry seasons led to a 1%–15%decrease in monthly mean backwater degree.Furthermore,increasing confluence discharge from Dongting Lake during June to July and September to November resulted in an 11%–42%increase in monthly mean backwater degree.Continuous channel degradation in the Jingjiang Reach contributed to a 6%–19%decrease in monthly mean backwater degree.Under the influence of these factors,the monthly mean backwater degree in 2017 varied from a decrease of 53%to an increase of 37%compared to corresponding values in 1991.

文摘This paper selects sampling sections for the mainstream and tributaries of the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River,collects river water and sediment samples during the flood season for pollen analysis,and uses methods such as Geodetector to explore the distribution characteristics and influencing factors of pollen.The results show significant variations in vegetation composition across different watersheds,leading to notable differences in both the percentage and concentration of pollen types.Pollen concentration in river water is generally higher in the mainstream compared to tributaries,while sediment pollen percentage and concentration are typically lower in the mainstream than in tributaries.The concentration of suspended solids is the most significant factor affecting pollen concentration in the Yellow River,with this effect being particularly prominent outside the Shanxi-Shaanxi Gorge.Abundant coarse sand and rapid flow velocities are likely responsible for the high suspended solids concentration and lower pollen concentration observed in the mainstream of the Shanxi-Shaanxi Gorge.In sediments,clay content is the primary factor influencing pollen concentration,and its interaction with silt and flow velocity has a more prominent influence on pollen concentration.At the Yellow River section below the Shanxi-Shaanxi Gorge,sediment pollen and clay concentrations significantly increase.The changes in pollen concentration in the river water before and after the reservoir are consistent with the suspended solids concentration,while the changes in sediment pollen concentration are consistent with the clay content.Notably,pollen concentrations in sediments decrease more significantly after passing through a reservoir compared to changes observed in river water samples.Overall,there is a strong correlation between river pollen and topsoil pollen,which can provide a reliable reflection of the broader vegetation landscape of the watershed.The findings can provide support for paleoenvironmental reconstruction using pollen from alluvial sediments or lakes with river inflows.

文摘Changes in river cross-section morphology have decisive influences on the flood discharge and sand transport capacity of rivers;thus,these changes strongly reflect the vitality of a river.In this paper,based on the river cross-section and water and sediment data of two different periods(1974−1987 and 2007−2021),the trend analysis,change-point analysis and sediment rating curve method were used to analyze the change process of river cross-section morphology and its response to streamflow and sediment changes in the main river stream of the Yellow River at the Longmen hydrological station.From 1974 to 1987(except in 1977),the riverbed experi-enced siltation,and the riverbed elevation rose.Conversely,from 2007 to 2021,the riverbed experienced scouring,and the riverbed el-evation gradually decreased.The cross-section shape changed from rectangular to U-shaped(deeper on the right side)at the Longmen cross-section.The changes in streamflow and sediment processes significantly impacted the evolution of river cross-section.Stream-flow(P<0.05),sediment discharge(P<0.01),and the sediment load coefficients(P<0.01)decreased significantly.The relationship between the water depth and sediment load coefficients followed a power function.The decreasing trend in sediment discharge was sig-nificantly stronger than that in streamflow.Suspended sediment particles tended to become finer.The sediment rating curve indicates that the sediment supply from upstream decreased while the erosive power in the river channel increased,leading to a gradual decline in riverbed elevation at the Longmen cross-section from 2007 to 2021.These findings help us better understand the impacts of ecological restoration on changes in river streamflow and sediment during river evolution.

文摘Studying the causes of summer(June–July–August)precipitation anomalies in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River(MLYR)and accurately predicting rainy season precipitation are important to society and the economy.In recent years,the sea surface temperature(SST)trend factor has been used to construct regression models for summer precipitation.In this study,through correlation analysis,winter SST anomaly predictors and the winter Central Pacific SST trend predictor(CPT)are identified as closely related to the following MLYR summer precipitation(YRSP).CPT can influence YRSP by inducing anomalous circulations over the North Pacific,guiding warm and moist air northward,and inhibiting the development of the anomalous anticyclone over the Northwest Pacific.This has improved the predictive skill of the seasonal regression model for YRSP.After incorporating the CPT,the correlation coefficient of the YRSP regression model improved by 40%,increasing from 0.45 to 0.63,and the root mean squared error decreased by 22%,from 1.15 to 0.90.

文摘Identification of the spatial mismatch between land use functions(LUFs)and land use efficiencies(LUEs)is essential to regional land use policies.However,previous studies about LUF-LUE mismatch and its driving factors have been insufficient.In this study,we explored the spatiotemporal mismatch of LUFs and LUEs and their influencing factors from 2000 to 2018 in the Middle Reaches of the Yangtze River(MRYR).Specifically,we used Spearman correlation analysis to reveal the trade-off relationship between LUFs and LUEs and determine the direction of the influencing factors on the LUF-LUE mismatch,adopted spatial mismatch analysis to measure the imbalance between LUFs and LUEs,and used the geographical detector model to analyze the factors influencing this spatial mismatch.The results showed that production function(PDF),living function(LVF),ecological function(ELF),agricultural production efficiency(APE),urban construction efficiency(UCE),and ecological services efficiency(ESE)all displayed significant spatial heterogeneity.The high trade-off areas were widely distributed and long-lasting in agricultural space and urban space,while gradually decreasing in ecological space.Wuhan and Changsha showed high spatial mismatch coefficients in urban space,but low spatial mismatch coefficients in agricultural space.Hunan generally presented high spatial mismatch coefficients in ecological space.Furthermore,the interaction of the proportion of cultivated area and transportation accessibility exacerbated the mismatch in agricultural space.The interaction effects of capital investment and technology innovation with other factors have the most intense impact on the mismatch in urban space.The internal factor for cultivated area interacts with other external factors to drastically affect ecological spatial mismatch.

文摘Understanding the relationship between unbalanced riverbed scouring or deposition and the evolution of central bars in natural conditions and human activity is useful for river regime control and waterway improvement projects.Toward this end,we utilized the Yangzhong reach in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River as a case study and evaluated runoff,sediment content,and topographical data measured over the past 70 years(1951–2021).With the decrease in the amount of incoming sediment in the river basin,the Yangzhong reach exhibited a continuous state of scouring.The cumulative riverbed scouring volumes of the low-water and flood channels from 1981 to 2021 were 3.97×10^(8)and 4.14×10^(8)m^(3),respectively,with the riverbed scouring volume of the low-water channel accounting for 95.9%of that of the flood channel.Under quasi-natural runoff–sediment conditions,the evolution of the central bars in the Yangzhong reach was highly correlated with the amount of scouring or deposition.In particular,the Luochengzhou reach could be characterized as a meandering river with scouring on concave riverbanks and deposition on convex riverbanks.In the context of reduced incoming sediment,the beach area of the Yangzhong reach decreased by approximately 9.9%(from 2003 to 2021)and the central bars of the straight section areas decreased.Moreover,following operation of the Three Gorges Reservoir,both the Luocheng central bar and Jiangyin beach areas could be characterized as meandering rivers with convex riverbanks and beaches.In the quasi-natural period before the implementation of the waterway improvement project,the trend of high scouring intensity and increased fluid diversion ratio in the right branch of the Luocheng central bar was in accordance with the law that the short branch of the length is in a developing state under the condition of decreasing river sediment volume.With the control of riverbank protection and the construction of waterway improvement projects in the Yangzhong reach,the shapes of the riverbanks and central bars were effectively stabilized,and the linkage relationship formed in the quasi-natural period was interrupted.Overall,these findings provide a strong foundation for understanding riverbed scouring or deposition and the evolution of central bars under the influence of natural conditions and human activities,and will inform future river management and waterway dimension planning.

文摘As an important river in the western part of Jilin Province,the lower reach of the Nenjiang River is an important wetland water source conservation area in Jilin Province.Within the watershed,it governs the Momoge Wetland,the Xianghai Wetland,and the Danjiang Wetland in Jilin Province.The main problem in the lower reaches of the Nenjiang River is the uneven distribution of water resources in time and space,and the intensification of land salinization.Zhenlai County and Da an City in the Nenjiang River Basin have sufficient surface water resources,with surface water as the drinking water source.Baicheng City and Tongyu County have scarce surface water resources,and both use groundwater as their domestic water source.The main polluted section in the basin is the Xianghai Reservoir,and the annual water quality evaluation is Class V.However,the water quality of the Tao er River,the main stream of the Nenjiang River,is significantly better than that of the Xianghai Reservoir.In order to better study the water environmental pollution situation in the Nenjiang River basin,monitoring data from five sections of non seasonal rivers in the basin from 2012 to 2021 were selected for studying water quality.This in-depth exploration of the water pollution status and river water quality change trends in the Nenjiang River basin is of great significance for future rural development,agricultural pattern transformation,and the promotion of water ecological civilization construction.

文摘In order to study the infiltration characteristics of grassland soil in the super large scale landslides distribution area in the upper reaches of the Yellow River,this study selected the Xiazangtan super large scale distribution area in Jianzha County as the study area.Through experiments and numerical simulations,plant roots characteristics,soil physical properties and infiltration characteristics of naturally grazed grassland and enclosed grassland with different slope directions were compared and analyzed,and the influence of rainfall on seepage field and stability of the two grassland slopes were discussed.The results show that the highest soil moisture infiltration capacity(FIR)is found on the shady slope of the enclosed grassland(2.25),followed by the sunny slope of the enclosed grassland(1.23)and the shady slope of the naturally grazed grassland(-0.87).Correlation analysis show that soil water content,root dry weight density,total soil porosity,number of forks and root length are positively correlated with infiltration rate(P<0.05),whereas soil dry density is negatively correlated with infiltration rate(P<0.05).The results of stepwise regression analyses show that soil water content,total soil porosity,root length and number of forks are the main factors affecting soil infiltration capacity.And the ability of roots to increase soil infiltration by improving soil properties is higher than the effect of roots itself.After 60 min of simulated rainfall,the safety factors of the shady slopes of naturally grazed grassland and enclosed grassland are reduced by 29.56%and 19.63%,respectively,comparing to those before rainfall.Therefore,in this study,the roots play a crucial role in regulating soil infiltration and enhance slope stability by increasing soil water content,soil total porosity and shear strength while decreasing soil dry density.The results of this study provide theoretical evidence and practical guidance for the effective prevention and control of secondary geological disasters such as soil erosion and shallow landslide on the slope of river banks in the study area by using plant ecological measures.

文摘Deep-water navigation channels in the tidal reaches of the lower Yangtze River are affected by water and sediment fluxes that produce complex shoals and unstable channel conditions.The Fujiangsha reach is particularly difficult to manage,as it has many braided channels within the tidal fluctuation zone.In this study,hydrologic and topographic data from the Fujiangsha reach from 2012 to 2017 were used to examine the variations in deposition and erosion,flow diversion,shoals,and channel conditions.Since the Three Gorges Dam became operational and water storage was initiated,the Fujiangsha reach has shown an overall tendency toward erosion.Channels deeper than 10 m accounted for 83.7% of the total erosion of the Fujiangsha reach during 2012-2017.Moreover,the dominant channel-forming sediments have gradually changed from suspended sediments to a mixed load of suspended and bed-load sediments.Deposition volumes of these sediments has varied significantly among different channels,but has mainly occurred in the Fubei channel.Furthermore,periodic variations in the Jingjiang point bar have followed a deposition-erosion-deposition pattern,and the downstream Shuangjian shoal mid-channel bar has been scoured and shortened.Approximately 44.0% of the bed load from the upstream Fujiangsha reach is deposited within the 12.5-m deep Fubei channel.The increased erosion and river flow from the Jingjiang point bar and the Shuangjian shoal during the flood season constituted 59.3% and 40.7%,respectively,of the total amount of siltation in the Fubei channel.
