Based on the monthly runoff data for more than 40 years of the Beidao,Xianyang,Huaxian station on Weihe Basin,the annual distribution characteristics of runoff were studied. Several indices related to attributes of uneven,concentrate degree and variation amplitude were calculated,and the results showed that there had obvious fresh and drought seasonal changes in 1990s. The annual runoff distribution had changed a lot,mainly because of runoff decrease in the wet season. The Huaxian station,which locates at the upper reaches,had a higher unevenness,concentration and relative variation rate than that of the Beidao and Xianyang station.展开更多

Based on the results, the runoff time is divided into four periods with the similar hydrological variation character. The annual runoff distribution characters in the Dagujia River basin are discussed by using the non-uniform coefficients, concentration degree and concentration period, variation range, etc. The results indicate that: (1) River runoff is very unevenly distributed throughout the year in Dagujia River. About 90% of runoff is in the period from June to October, while the runoff from November to April of the next year is lower. (2) The annual runoff distribution characters during 1966-1971 are very similar to that of 1982-1996, and the runoff of 1972-1981 is almost similar to that of 1997-2004. (3) The annual runoff distribution characters have changed obviously during 1997-2004 compared with the other periods, which makes it more difficult to exploit and use the water resource in the future.展开更多

European stream runoff resources are more abundant than that of China. Europe has 28 rivers with runoff volume exceeding 10 km3, and China only has 19.But Europe has no rivers like those in China which are long andhave abundant waer volume such as Changiiang (Yangtze River) and Zhujiang. Heat conditions of the European water-abundant and water-sufficient zones are poor and their agiculture are not flourishing.In China these zones have very good heat conditions and are main farm production regions. The interannual and annual variation of stream runoff are the sane to the irrespective feedings in Europe and China.展开更多
