It is .focused on the additional electricity accommodation, based on the research at the earl）, stage. The electric energ）, accommodation solutions ate recommended as that. based on the cost-benefit analysis of the power distribution area, the additional electric energy of the Three Gorges should be given ptqority to meet the needs at the supply end of Hubei and Chongqing. The results of this research has a reference value on the implementation of the Three Gorges electric power accommodation, after the further optimization of the transmission curves in both wet and dry seasons.展开更多

The Tonle Sap Lake is an important wetland area of Cambodia and Southeast Asia. However, wetland is under threats from infrastructure development, land conversion, water withdrawals, pollution, increased population pressure and hydropower dams building and affect the livelihoods of rural communities. The governance of wetlands is a key action in sustaining the wetland services and the well-being of people. The ＂wise use＂ is a key concept of wetland governance. Although there is considerable research on the ＂wise use＂ and the application of this concept in wetland management, its application in Tonle Sap remains challenged. Hence, this article addresses the question： How wise use is operationalized for the governance of wetlands in Tonle Sap and what implication it has on the wellbeing of peoples and the ecosystem services？ It uses a literature review and a case study to analyze the wetland governance in Tonle Sap, Cambodia. The article describes the wetland governance based on ecosystem services, the direct and indirect driver affecting wetlands and how it threatens the livelihood security of wetland dependent communities. It concludes that the officially wise use of wetlands is a problematic in Tonle Sap.展开更多

During operation, increased hydrostatic back pressure at the base of the dam was found, which indicated the low efficiency of the base design protection. To reduce back pressure B. E. Vedeneev Hydro Technic Institute proposed the device of “advanced” drainage holes from the cement-grout gallery near the upstream face. The implementation of the proposal in a number of sections of the dam has led to a decrease in back pressure, but affected filtration in the drainage system, increasing it significantly. The article examines filtration features of “advanced” drainage holes and their dependence on the severity of winters. The spread of the practice of “advanced” drainage in other sections of the dam requires caution and further investigations of the nature of filtration.展开更多
