长江防洪在湖北经济发展中的战略地位

On the strategic role of flood control of the Yangtze river in the economic development of Hubei province

湖北省是长江防汛的重点省份。湖北长江防洪形势严峻的主要原因是长江上游的洪水来量大于荆江河段允许通过的安全泄量,江湖关系变化,围湖、围滩造田减少洪水调蓄的面积,通过对湖北省新中国成立以来特别是1998年长江大洪水以来,长江防洪体系建设对社会经济产生的巨大影响和存在的主要问题的分析,提出了进一步加强长江防洪体系建设的建议。

Hubei province is of importance to the Yangtze river flood control. The main reasons for the severe Yangtze river flood control situation in Hubei province are the more flood inflow from the upstream Yangtze river than the permissible safe flood outflow of the Jingjiang reach; the variation of the relationship between the Yangtze river and the Dongting lake; the decrease of flood storage area due to reclaiming land from lakes and shoals. Through analyzing the significant effect of the Yangtze river flood control system construction in Hubei province on society and economy and main problems arising since the founding of the new China, especially the 1998 Yangtze river flood, some proposals for further strengthening the construction of the Yangtze river flood control system are put forward.
