On the other hand, the maximum flows that the UACC could transport were analyzed, concluding that it no longer has the hydraulic capacity to transport the flow rate associated to return periods equal to or greater than five years and that maximum permissible velocity UACC’s bottom is 3 m/s.展开更多

It has been operated for more than 10 years, since its impoundment in October, 1999. The reservoir has trapped 2.833 × 10^9 m3 of sediment, and caused the total erosion of 1.891 × 10^9t in the Lower Yellow River from October, 1999 through October, 2010. Not only the serious atrophied situation of the Lower Yellow River (LYR) has been resuscitating, but also many new phenomena of sediment transport and behaviors of channel re-establishing are coming into being. They are illustrated and discussed in detail in this paper.展开更多
