Based on the analysis of physical characteristics about the desilting sediment diverted from the Yellow River in irrigation districts, the solidified sediment product was successfully manufactured. In the research, it was found that the cement dosage as one of the mixed curing agent had obvious influence on the properties of solidified sediment product. As the compressive strength, impermeability and frost-resistanceproducts of the product meet the requirement of moderate water conservancy engineering, it was successfully applied in the Sanfengan Canal lining and the Yanglanhe Reservoir wave wall construction, which set a good example for the future comprehensive sediment utilization in irrigation districts.

High–arsenic (As) groundwater poses a serious threat to human health. The upper and middle reaches of the Yellow River are well–known areas for the enrichment of high–arsenic groundwater. However, little is known about the distribution characteristics and formation mechanism of high-As groundwater in the lower reach of the Yellow River. There were 203 groundwater samples collected in different groundwater systems of the lower Yellow River for the exploration of its hydrogeochemical characteristics. Results showed that more than 20% of the samples have arsenic concentrations exceeding 10 μg/L. The high-As groundwater was mainly distributed in Late Pleistocene–Holocene aquifers, and the As concentrations in the paleochannels systems (C2 and C4) were significantly higher than that of the paleointerfluve system (C3) and modern Yellow River affected system (C5). The high-As groundwater is characterized by high Fe2+ and NH4+ and low Eh and NO3−, indicating that reductive dissolution of the As–bearing iron oxides is probably the main cause of As release. The arsenic concentrations strikingly showed an increasing tendency as the HCO3− proportion increases, suggesting that HCO3− competitive adsorption may facilitate As mobilization, too. In addition, a Gibbs diagram showed that the evaporation of groundwater could be another significant hydrogeochemical processes, except for the water–rock interaction in the study area. Different sources of aquifer medium and sedimentary structure may be the main reasons for the significant zonation of the As spatial distribution in the lower Yellow River.

Large-scale reservoirs have played a significant role in meeting various water demands and socio-economic development, while they also lead to undeniable impacts on the environment and ecology. The Longyangxia reservoir located on the Yellow River is the first large-scale reservoir on the upper Yellow River with a control area of 18% of the entire Yellow River Basin. Since it was put into operation in 1987, it has made great contributions to the national economy for over 30 years. In this study, the socio-economic benefits of the Longyangxia reservoir in power generation, water supply, flood control, and ice prevention are investigated. More importantly, its impacts on the ecology and environment are also presented and analyzed, such as the impacts on river morphology, flow regimes, peak flow, fish, phytoplankton, and zooplankton. It can be concluded that the construction of the Longyangxia reservoir contributes greatly to socio-economic benefits, the water area nearby has formed a new ecological environment, and the trophic level of the aquatic environment has probably increased.

The total water amount into the Yellow River estuary is significantly reduced with the construction of a series of reservoirs in the Yellow River, which has a lot of adversely effects on the fishes and fishery resources in the estuary. This research analyzes the impacts of the reservoirs on the runoff and discharge in the Lower Yellow River and the estuary, and pays more attention to the influences of the reduction of water amount on the estuarine ecology and fishes. As a large reservoir nearest to the estuary in the Lower Yellow River, the operation of Xiaolangdi Reservoir plays an important role on the ecological restoration of the lower reaches of the Yellow River and the estuary. Two ecological operation schemes are proposed based on the ecological demands of the estuarine fishes and the actual operation of the Xiaolangdi Reservoir in recent years. One scheme is proposed only on the basis of the estuarine ecological water demands and another scheme takes consideration of ecological water demands and the actual status of the water resources in the Lower Yellow River synthetically. Finally, the feasibility of the two schemes are analyzed according to the actual situation of water storage of the reservoirs in the Yellow River in 2017.

Fascine objects can be applied in the process of emergency rescues in the Middle and Lower reaches of the Yellow River. Because fascine objects can improve the efficiency of rushing to deal with an emergency, adapt to changes in river bed conditions better, resist the erosion of water slide on riverbank and buttress and prevent the collapse of the embankment, they are applicable to rescuing grave dangerous situations such as river closure, advancing construction dams in waters, closing up levee breaches and so on. Based on the experimental study, the authors analyze the mechanical calculation results of fascine object’s underwater falling, and draw the relevant mechanical properties of fascine object’s underwater falling.

The 2-D water flow mathematical model based on MIKE 21 software which reflects flood routing in the reach from Gaocun to Sunkou has been developed in this paper. Through the numerical simulation of the “96.8” typical flood, the simulating results in the condition of present topography are agreement with the measured ones. It shows that this model is basically reasonable in the selection aspects of river terrain, boundary treatment, roughness and water flow parameters, and the model has a reference value for simulating flood routing in the Lower Yellow River.

Blasting model of ice is established by ANSYS-LSDYNA in this paper. By using LS-PREPOST, the author analyzes the broken volume or diameter of ice in different working conditions, including the buried depth of explosive, the load and the thickness of ice. ORIGN drawing software is used to analyze the most suitable blasting location with different thickness of ice. The result shows that when the thickness is between 20cm and 60cm, the best blasting coefficient of water-medium ice is K=R/ H =0.5~1. It also shows that the explosive effect will be better when it is exploded under ice layer than in the middle or at the surface of ice layer. Calculation result and field test align fairly well. By simulating blasting parameter in different working conditions, ice prevention database is built, providing references for designers to develop a series of shaped into ice equipments. It also has important practical meaning to use various equipments to prevent and treat ice disasters of the Yellow River.

Clarifying the development relationship between urban built-up land and economic hinterland can provide decision support for regional sustainable development. Using the improved field model, geographic concentration and elasticity coefficient, and taking the lower reaches of the Yellow River as the study area, this study defines the scope of urban economic hinterland in the lower reaches of the Yellow River in China from 2005 to 2017, further analyzes the dynamic process of urban built-up land agglomeration and economic hinterland agglomeration, and reveals the spatial–temporal coupling relationships of urban built-up land expansion and economic hinterland development. The results revealed the following: (1) From 2005 to 2017, the spatial and temporal change pattern of the economic hinterland of each city in the lower reaches of the Yellow River had basically the same trend, showing a low degree of coincidence with the administrative divisions and obvious differences in scope and change; (2) The geographic concentration of built-up land showed a trend of centering on the cities of Zhengzhou and Jinan, spreading to the periphery, and gradually forming a high-value contiguous area in both cities. The spatial distribution patterns of the geographic concentration of economic hinterland are mainly manifested in Zhengzhou and Jinan, showing a circle structure of areas with “highest-low-higher” concentrations of economic hinterland moving away from the urban center; (3) The spatial–temporal coupling between the expansion of urban built-up land and the development of economic hinterland underwent an obvious transformation process. From 2005 to 2011, the coupling mode was mainly growth, and, from 2011 to 2017, it began to shift to extensive and intensive development. The coupling model of urban built-up land and economic hinterland in the lower reaches of the Yellow River has a good trend.
