Abstract:
Based on a systematic summary of the studies on decoupling theory and relevant methods, the decoupling elasticity model is was employed to study investigate the decoupling relationships (DRs)DRs of between total water use (TWU) and provincial GDP, agricultural water use (AWU) and agriculturale added value (AAV), as well asand industrial water use (IWU) and industrial added value (IAV), respectively, which were used in order to comprehensively to analyze the dynamic relationship between water use and economic development of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces during the period from 2001 to 2010, the first ten years for of the Great Western Development Strategy in China. The results indicated that the overall DR betweenof water use and economic development is highly undesirable in both of the two provinces. Specifically, among the three groups of DRs, the DR of AWU is was the worst with strong or weak coupling in half5 of the 10 years in the two provinces; the DR of IWU is slightly better with strong coupling respectively in 3 of the 10 years in Yunnan and in 2 of the 10 years in Guizhou; and while the DR of TWU is the best with strong or weak decoupling in 7 of the 10 years in the two provinces. It is believed that tThe slow economic growth, low water use efficiency, and as well as unreasonable water use structure are were the three main factors to cause the unfavorable decoupling relationships. The five-year based DR has been improved in the 11th FYP if compared with that in the 10th FYP, which means suggested the Great Western Development Strategy plays a positive role in coordinating the relationship between water use and economic development.

Abstract:
According to the daily precipitation and the runoff data of the Luanxian station in the Luanhe River Basin from 1950 to 2009, the mathematical statistics method was applied in this study to analyze the inter-annual, inter-generation, and annual variation characteristics and trend of runoff, and to investigate the variation of precipitation in the Luanhe River Basin to help discover the effects of precipitation and human activities to runoff. The results showed that both the inter-annual and inter-generation runoff variations are apparent in the Luanhe River Basin, and high flow period occurred from 1950 to 1979 and low flow period appeared after 1980. Furthermore, the annual runoff of the Luanhe River Basin was unevenly distributed with 66.2% of runoff occurring from July to September. Both the runoff and precipitation of the Luanhe River Basin had the significant decreasing trend. During the period of 1959 to 1968, the increasing runoff in the Luanhe River Basin can be attributed to both the precipitation and human activities; while during the period of 1969 to 2009, human activity was the main reason for the decreasing of runoff.

Abstract:
Based on the theory[1] of ecological footprint, the ecological footprint and ecological carrying capacity of water resources in Guangdong Province were calculated and analyzed from 2005 to 2011 in aspect of the provincial, regional, and municipal scales. The results showed that (1) during the study period, the water resources ecological footprint per capita of Guangdong Province decreases continuously with a rate of 11.6%/a; (2) the water resources ecological footprint per 104 yuan GDP decreases annually, indicating the increasing of utilization of water resources; and (3) the water resources ecological carrying capacity is high in the provincial scale, which suggested the ecological surplus status and thus the utilization of water resources is sustainable. On the regional distribution, the ecological footprint was highest in the northern mountain area of Guangdong whereas lowest in eastern Guangdong. The water resources ecological pressure was highest in the Pearl River Delta region whereas the lowest in northern Guangdong. On the municipal distribution, the water resources ecological footprint per capita was higher in Shaoguan and Guangzhou than that in other cities, and the water ecological pressure in Foshan was the highest among all cities. In the process of socio-economic development, the industrial structure should be adjusted and the water use efficiency should be improved based on the status of sustainable utilization of water resources.

Abstract:
Based on the hydrogeological conditions of Chashang water source area in Wubao County of Shaanxi Province, the study area and boundary conditions were determined, and the hydrogeological conceptual model and two-dimensional unsteady mathematical groundwater flow were constructed. Visual MODFLOW, which is based on the finite difference method, was selected for numerical simulation of groundwater flow. The reliable hydrogeological parameters were determined through model identification and verification, and they were used to perform quantitative evaluation of groundwater resources in Chashang water source area. Nine designed pumping schemes were compared and the most reasonable groundwater pumping scheme was selected, and the allowable groundwater exploitation amount in normal and dry seasons was obtained as 6880 m3/d. Based on the prediction results, the currently designed groundwater exploitation amount is reasonable, which provides a basis for the reasonable exploration and utilization of groundwater resources in the study area.

Abstract:
Accurate simulation of dynamic change of water flow and hydrodynamic characteristics is of important significance for predicting the migration and transformation of pollutants and understanding the interactions between water flow and pollutants. In this study, a hydrodynamic model was developed based on the EFDC model to simulate the water flow characteristics of Taihu Lake in light of the collected hydrological, meteorological, and terrain data from 2009 to 2010 and the effects of implementation of the Water Transfer Project from Yangtze River to Taihu Lake. The model results showed that the combination of maximum wind direction and wind speed can generate the flow field close to the actual conditions, and the effects of the Water Transfer Project from Yangtze River to Taihu Lake on the water flow of Taihu Lake are insignificant. The model shows good simulated hydrodynamic results.

Abstract:
River plays an important role in the aquatic ecosystem, and river health is an important indicator of social and economic development and ecological environment protection. Based on the analysis and calculation of the indexes of river ecological function, including the habitat diversity index, river water quality index, river runoff index, forest coverage index, groundwater overexploitation index, and river longitudinal continuity index, the weight of each index was determined in consideration of the effects of each index in the overall evaluation, and each index was standardized to develop the assessment index system of river health. The system was applied to the Luanhe River Basin to evaluate its ecological function based on the survey results of the basin, and the evaluation result was between normal and poor. The evaluation method considers a number of factors affecting the ecological function of the river, so the evaluation results can reflect the actual ecological functions of the river and then provide references for the development and management of river.

Abstract:
The water-filling process in pipeline involves gas-liquid two-phase transient flow. A reasonable analysis and assessment of the two-phase dynamic characteristics is very important for the optimization design and safe operation of engineering project and numerical simulation study. Based on the dimensional analysis and similarity theory, the similarity laws of the gas-phase model during the water-filling process were established, and the dynamic similarity laws of the exhaust process in vents were similar to the gravity similarity laws; therefore the geometric proportion relationship of detained air bubbles in the pipeline in the prototype and model was obtained. The similarity laws of the gas-phase model were applied to the hydraulic model test of the culvert air vent on the West 4th Ring Road of Beijing in the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, which provided the dynamic parameters of gas-liquid two-phase flow during the water-filling process and the reasonable water-filling flow rate in the culvert. Furthermore, the effects of the detained air bubbles on the conveyance capacity were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively.

In order to explore the accuracy of Fluent software in simulating the head loss of long-distance inverted siphon, the water-air two-phase flow VOF method in the computational fluid dynamics software Fluent and a three-dimensional standard k~ε model were used to simulate the head loss of long-distance inverted siphon. The calculations considered wall roughness by setting different roughness simulate head loss of small-trough inverted siphon to obtain the roughness of glass fiber reinforced plastic pipe. The measured and simulated head loss values under large flow conditions were compared, which showed that it is feasible to set the roughness of the long-distance inverted siphon to simulate head loss. However, the effects of mesh discretization on the head loss results need further research.

Abstract:
The polypropylene was used as suspended particle, and numeral simulation was performed to investigate the effects of different stirring styles. The model was first examined based on the CFD simulation and experiments to obtain the reasonable results, and then the k-εunsteady model was adopted to simulate the flowing field of eccentric agitation. The simulated results were verified with the experimental results to analyze the impacts of different eccentric degrees on the velocity distribution, turbulence kinetic energy, and mixing effects and time of polypropylene. The results showed that the offset ratio is about 0.22, and when the immersion depth is 35% of the bottle height, the flowing field is well distributed with small “death zone”, which is beneficial to the mixing of polypropylene.

Abstract:
Accurate estimation of groundwater withdrawal is meaningful for the assessment and management of regional groundwater resources. However, due to the dispersive groundwater pumping and inadequate means in the current management and statistic methods, errors exist in the statistical data of groundwater withdrawal. In this study, a numerical model of regional groundwater flow in the North China Plain was developed, and the inversion estimation of groundwater withdrawal was performed through the fitting between the simulated and measured water levels. Finally, the groundwater withdrawals data from 2002 to 2008 were obtained and the average annual groundwater withdrawal in the NCP was 249.20×108 m3.

Abstract:
Gaoliying ground fissure destroyed the building walls and roads and had serious effects on urban planning and construction. Previous research results showed that Gaoliying ground fissure is a composite one and caused by the combination results of fault creep deformation and ground differential subsidence induced by decline of groundwater level. In this study, FLAC3D software was used to simulate the developing trend of Gaoliying ground fissure under eight different conditions. The results indicated that the forbidden bandwidth of ground fissure is 90 m, which agrees with the surface investigation results of 100 m. The research results suggested that application of FLAC3D technology in the numerical simulation of ground fissure is feasible, and it can also provide guidance for the prediction of ground fissure in Beijing.

Abstract:
For a landslide with multiple GPS monitoring locations, only the displacements at a few typical locations were investigated and used to represent the overall deformation of the landslide, which often induces different results with the actual conditions. In this paper, the surface displacement monitoring data of a landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area were adopted to obtain contribution rate of each monitoring displacement to the overall deformation, and then to determine the overall displacement curve. The mathematical method wavelet analysis was used to derive the overall displacement equation, and thus to analyze the influence mechanism and cycle of external factors (rainfall and water level) on the landslide deformation. The results showed that the landslide is potentially unstable at present, and the cycle of effects of rainfall and water level on the landslide deformation c is about 12 months. The prediction accuracy of displacement is about 92% using the overall displacement curve. This method can reflect the stability situation and development trend of landslide accurately and provide references for similar landslides.

Abstract:
n the numerical groundwater flow simulation of areas with complex hydrogeological conditions, the rainfall infiltration recharge rate is usually assumed, which results in complicated model parameter identification. In this study, Modflow software was used to develop the Winpest inversion model, which can optimize hydraulic conductivities and rainfall infiltration recharge partition based on the fitting between the measured and simulated water levels. The model was applied to Bibanpo tunnel zone in XX County of XX Province?. The results showed that the rainfall infiltration recharge of the study area can be partitioned initially according to the different layers of surface outcrops, and then the partitions can be divided again based on different elevations and optimized to realize the high-precision fitting of initial groundwater seepage field. The Winpest inversion analysis method can reduce the blindness of assumed rainfall infiltration recharge and thus offer a more efficient and faster approach for modeling the initial groundwater seepage field with complicated hydrogeological conditions.

Abstract:
The western part of Beijing is located in the top area of the Yongding River alluvial fan, where the storage of groundwater is abundant. Groundwater level declined rapidly in recent years due to over-exploitation. The South-to-North Water Transfer Project into Beijing can decrease groundwater extraction, so it is necessary to study the suitable groundwater recovery level and to control its recovery rate. Based on the hydrogeological conditions of the study area, the engineering and environmental limited groundwater level was studied through the investigations of gravel pit, underground construction, and landfill site. Compared with the historical flow field, the suitable groundwater recovery level was determined to be the flow field of the dry season in 1983.

Abstract:
The destabilization mode of the huge rock mixture slope was investigated using the discrete element numerical method. The results showed that (1) the huge rock mixture slope would deform when the friction coefficient of the rock surface reduces. The destabilization mode is mainly the translation slip of rock blocks with rotation of a few rock blocks; (2) the rock blocks accumulate and occlude during the movement, and shows the ability of self-stabilization; (3) the main destabilization range of the huge block mixture slope is the front and the middle parts of the slope. In vertical direction, the upper and middle parts of slope have higher deformation than the lower part; and (4) the movement of front rock block can cause the deformation of back rock block due to losing of support, which is the retrogressive destabilization mode.

Abstract:
Global warming results in the increasing in the forest fire danger weather and forest fire frequency. Therefore, it is important to study the disaster control and reduction and post-disaster reconstruction in the forest watershed. The watershed hydrology process can be affected by the forest fire through destroying vegetation cover and litter on the ground, altering soil properties, and deteriorating ecological environment, and thus the research of hydrological response of forest fire has received widespread attentions. This paper reviewed the impacts of forest fire on the hydrological processes in aspect of rainfall interception, soil hydrology, evapotranspiration, and water yield. Due to different impact degrees of each hydrological factor to forest fire caused by the spatial heterogeneity of forest fire, the vegetation type, fire type, and fire severity need to be taken into account in the analysis of the impacts of forest fire on the hydrological processes in future.

Abstract:
The alpine pastoral area of Tibet has high elevation, large daily temperature range, strong solar radiation, and high variation of air humidity. In this study, the field experiment was conducted to analyze the diurnal variation of leaf water potential of oat (ψL) and its relationship with the typical meteorological factors such as atmospheric temperature (T), solar radiation (Rs), and relative air humidity (RH) to establish the corresponding regression models. The experiment results showed that the daily variation of oat’s ψL is significantly different during different growth stages. The oat’s ψL showed ‘V-type’ during the seeding stage and heading stage; while it showed ‘W-type’ during the jointing stage and tillering stage, and the maximum variation range of ψL can reach 6 MPa in a day. Based on the regression analysis, the order of significant effects of meteorological factors on oat's ψL was T>RH>Rs. These results are of vital significance for seeking the hydrologic cycle rules of the irrigated grass, formulating the scientific irrigation schedule, and increasing the water use efficiency of grass growing in the alpine area.

Abstract:
In order to ascertain the production of soil condensation water in the typical region of North China Plain, the weighing method was used to observe soil condensation water in the study area. The results indicated that the formation of soil condensation water can be observed from 2:00 pm to 10:00 am of the next day. Most of soil condensation water originated from the air vapor and only a small amount from soil water, of which about 50% of the total condensation water gathered in the range of 0 to 5 cm below the ground surface. According to the analysis results of impact factors for the formation of soil condensation water, high relative humidity, low atmospheric temperature, and low wind speed were favorable for the formation of the soil condensation water.

The effects of different irrigation methods on the consumption characteristics and yield of summer corn were investigated based on different water treatments. The results showed that (1) the higher the control limit of moisture content is, the greater the water consumption is; (2) the water consumption of the integrated ridge tillage furrow planting pattern is lower than that of the conventional furrow planting pattern under the same water treatment during the growing period，and the impoundment effect of soil moisture is good; (3) under different furrow irrigation methods, the corn yield and water use efficiency are significantly different, and the integrated ridge tillage furrow planting pattern generates higher yield and improves the water use efficiency. The average increasing rate of yield is 8.67%，and the increased water use efficiency is 0.23 to 0.36 kg/m3, and (4) too low or too high moisture treatments can cause adverse effects on the corn yield and its component factors.

Abstract:
The South-to-North Water Diversion Project is an infrastructure engineering project with social public welfare and economic benefit, and its engineering characteristics determine the national investment, operation, and management, which might result in the low water price and low water resources utilization efficiency, and therefore affect the sustainable utilization of water resources. Therefore, the water market concept is introduced into the management system of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, and the decision-making environment theory is applied to determine the roles of market and government decision-makings in the water price management. According to actual situations of project, water price is formulated based on the method of full cost accounting and the consideration of environment price and resources price. The “quasi-maket” model is used to improve the formulation and management mechanism of engineering water price, which is beneficial for the sustainable development of water price mechanism in the South-to-North Water Diversion Project and effective allocation of water resources.

Abstract:
According to the analysis of measured ice data, the paper pointed out that the evolution of the ice sheet thickness can be used as the main basis for forecasting the break-up date at the TouDaoguai station along the Yellow River, and the persistent and cumulative effects of temperature and flow during the freezing period are also important factors which affect the timing of break-up date. A new method to forecast the break-up date using the data mining technology (DM) and least square support machine (LSSVM) was presented in this paper. The LSSVM model was used to predict the break-up dates at the TouDaoguai station in 2010, 2011, and 2012, and the results showed that the method can predict the break-up date on any date of ice sheet thickness observation during the frozen period, which can expand the forecast period effectively. Furthermore, the predicted values of break-up date before March 6th met the requirements of the allowable prediction error rate. An average value method of forecasting the break-up date was proposed according to the characteristics of volatility change in the prediction error produced by the LSSVM model, which can improve the prediction accuracy significantly.

Abstract:
The paper applies the opposite and unity theorem of variable fuzzy sets to develop a dam safety evaluation model with the establishment of the evaluation index system of dam safety and its classification criterion based on the analysis of influence factors of dam safety and evaluation guide rules of dam safety. The model was used to analyze the engineering samples and the evaluation results were compared with those obtained from the set pair analysis method. The results showed that the both methods generate similar conclusions, but the evaluation method based on the opposite and unity theorem of variable fuzzy sets is clearer and easier for calculation, and therefore it is better than the set pair analysis method in evaluation of dam safety.

Abstract:
Based on the requirement of the most strict water resources management system, the total water control “The Red Line” binding force is to strengthen water resources management, to promote the optimized allocation of water resources and water use efficiency, and to ensure the sustainable utilization of water resources. When determining the total water control index, two factors should be considered including the features of local water resources and the water demand of local socio-economic and ecological environment. In this paper, the concept of available surface (underground) water resources was discussed in three aspects of a narrow sense, generalized sense, and strict sense, and a method system to determine the total water use control was proposed. Finally, the total water control indexes in Jiaonan and Rushan during the planning year were calculated, which can provide a theoretical basis for the system construction of total water control and allocation of control indexes in the two cities.

Abstract:
In order to investigate the effects of different treatment methods on the dredged sludge fertility and castor growth, different experiments were conducted on the castor planting soil (untreated dredged sludge (CK1), cultivation soil (CK2), and saline soils (CK3) and three types of improved dredged sludge soil (Ⅳ, Ⅴ, Ⅵ)), and the variations of planting soil physicochemical properties, castor root development, and growth conditions above ground were evaluated. The results showed that the treatment methods for improving dredged sludge soil can improve the grain structure of sludge, reduce the density and pH, and enhance the nutrition content of sludge, and the modified sludge plays a certain role in promoting the root development and castor growth. Moreover, it was found that the treatment method IV for improving dredged sludge soil is the most effective method to promote the castor growth, which has similar effects as the cultivation soil (CK2).
