Surface runoff processes and sustainable utilization of water resources in Manas River Basin, Xinjiang, China

Because of the Lack of water resources and the increasing water quantity used in living and production, the water resources are becoming the restrictive factor of regional economic and social development in in Manas river basin. The exploitation and utilization of conventional water resources has reached more than 95% in the basin,it caused great attention that the development and utilization of non-conventional water resources for agricultural development and ecological environment construction. At present, the exploitation and utilization of the non-conventional water resources(shallow underground salt water，saline water) for agriculture and forestry has become more and more widespread and in-depth. because of the lack of scientific instruction and reasonable exploitation, which not only caused water level falling, leading to degradation of the brittle natural entironment, but also caused SBHCSS and the decline in productivity. With the analysis of the non-conventional water resources actual exploitation and utilization, under the scientific development concept, the aryicle puts forward the sustained strategies of non-conventional underground water resources (salt water, saline water) reasonable exploitation and the irrigation return flow reuse efficient exploitation which is used for ecological restoration and reconstruction.

Strategic Measures

Recently Shiyang River Basin in China has been the area with greatest population density, highest utilization level of water resources, least per capita water resources, most striking conflict on water use and most serious ecological problems among inland river basins due to the overexploitation and out-of-order utilization of water resources with rapid social and economic development. The Key Control Plan of Shiyang River Basin was published in 2007, which raised the comprehensive control of Shiyang River Basin to the national level. On the basis of comparison analysis on the utilization of water resources and water ecological civilization construction since the key control of Shiyang River Basin, the strategic measures on the sustainable utilization of water resources are proposed.

Because lack of water resources in Manas river basin, the water resources carrying capacity evaluation is important to the water sustainable development. In this paper, we select the main factors of the water resources carrying capacity and separate into water resources subsystem, social subsystem, economic subsystem and ecological subsystem. Then established three evaluation models to evaluate the different years of water resources carrying capacity and made the application comparison. The fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model and matter-element models are adaptable to the water carrying capacity evaluation, but the determination of weights is too subjective; The projection pursuit theory is based on the sample characteristics of their own, and without given weight of each indicator, the results is more objective. The results show that the water resources carrying capacity in Manas River basin was at V1-stage in 2000; it is at V2- stage in 2010 and V3- stage in 2020, and then the water resources carrying capacity in Manas River basin is the ideal carrying capacity status. At the same time, because of saving water technological and industry restructure adjustment, water resources carrying capacity in Manas River Basin is on a benign trend. At last, some measures of improving the water resource carrying capacity were put forward.

Abstract Rainfall and runoff are significant hydrologic component in the water resources assessment. Rainfall is the primary source of recharge into the ground water. Understanding of rainfall and runoff is necessary for assessment of water availability. The runoff generation procedure is extremely complex. Accurate runoff assessment is carried out for useful management and improvement of water resources. Many methods are available to estimate runoff from rainfall; however, the SCS-CN method still remains the most popular, fruitful and frequently used method. Runoff curve number (CN) is a key factor of the SCS-CN method and it is depends on land use/land cover (LULC), soil type, and antecedent soil moisture (AMC). Different parameters, like land use/land cover, hydrological soil characteristics (HSG), rainfall data (P), Potential Maximum Retention (S), Antecedent Moisture Condition (AMC), Weighted Curve Number (CN), that are the mandatory inputs to SCS model, have been either derived from remote sensing data or from conventional data collection systems. The advance application of Remote Sensing and GIS techniques used to estimate surface runoff based on different parameters. The total area of present study is 26207.02 km2 of Sind River Basin, located in the northern part of Madhya Pradesh, India. The daily rainfall data of 23 weather stations (2005-2014) was collected and used to predict the daily runoff from the Sind river basin using SCS-CN method and GIS technique for the duration of 2005-2014, annual average of daily rainfall are 777.07 mm and annual average of daily runoff calculated for Sind river basin are 133.71 mm. The developed rainfall–runoff model has been used to understand the characteristics of the watershed and its runoff.
