The urban agglomeration polders type of flood control pattern is a general flood control pattern in the eastern plain area and some of the secondary river basins in China. A HEC-HMS model of Qinhuai River basin based on the flood control pattern was established for simulating basin runoff, examining the impact of urban agglomeration polders on flood events, and estimating the effects of urbanization on hydrological processes of the urban agglomeration polders in Qinhuai River basin. The results indicate that the urban agglomeration polders could increase the peak flow and flood volume. The smaller the scale of the flood, the more significant the influence of the polder was to the flood volume. The distribution of the city circle polder has no obvious impact on the flood volume, but has effect on the peak flow. The closer the polder is to basin output, the smaller the influence it has on peak flows. As the level of urbanization gradually improving of city circle polder, flood volumes and peak flows gradually increase compared to those with the current level of urbanization (the impervious rate was 20%). The potential change in flood volume and peak flow with increasing impervious rate shows a linear relationship.

The research dedicated to modeling of flood mitigation on the river basin with help of simulation of flood control by virtual small water reservoirs located in different places of the river system. Such problem decided with help of modeling of flood hydrograph and its routing through water reservoir on the base GIS. Reducing the degree of flooding should occur due to the limited hydraulic flow capacity of the water flow by dam spillways without flood control by people. The offered model is represented on the example of concrete river basin. Results have showed relevance of the model for flood mitigation on the river basin.
