The 2-D water and sediment mathematical model which reflects flood retarding and sand silting of flood plain in the Lower Yellow River has been set up in this paper. Through carrying on 2-D water and sediment numerical simulation of the “96.8” typical flood, the authors studied influence of zoning flood retarding and sand silting on flood travel, flow structure of floodplain-channel and transver exchange of water and sediment. The simulating results in different conditions show that, adopting the zoning flood retarding and sand silting in the Lower Yellow River effectively worked on retarding flood and sharpening peaks in the flood retarding basin, guaranteed and expanded transver exchange of water and sediment in the floodplain and channel and maintained the river channel’s vigor. This can relieve “secondary suspended river” states in the Low Yellow River to a certain extent.

The 2-D water and sediment mathematical model which reflects silting in floodplain and scouting in main channel of over-bank flooding in the Lower Yellow River has been set up in this paper. Through carrying on 2-D water and sediment numerical simulation of the “96.8” typical flood, the author studied influence of over-bank flooding on flood travel and transverse exchange. The primary simulation results show that, adopting the over-bank flooding for silting in floodplain and scouting in main channel effectively guaranteed and expanded transverse exchange between floodplain and main channel and maintained the river channel vigor. This can relieve “secondary suspended river” states in the Low Yellow River to a certain extent; at the same time, the different magnitudes of over-bank floods have different effect of silting in floodplain and scouting in main channel.

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.

Boundary Treatment

The Lower Yellow River is apt to deposit and migrate. The reach from Huayuankou to Jiahetan is the typical wandering reach, which has broad and shallow body, intertwined tributary and numerous shoals. The mainstream always swings, and the riverbed deforms rapidly. There exist lots of residential places, irrigation canals, roads, productive dikes and other controlling works within the embankments, which greatly limits the scope of flooding. When the peak discharge is very large, the flood is prone to resulting in productive dikes bursting, which will greatly endanger the lives of residents in flood plains. The 2-D water flow mathematical model which reflects flood routing in the reach from Huayuankou to Jiahetan has been developed based on MIKE 21 software 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.

Geomorphic Units

River channel change can be very sensitive to environmental change and human activities and it has been one of the main research topics in fluvial geomorphology. In this study, repeated channel geometric measurements were used to investigate the channel adjustment to water and sediment changes of the lower Yellow River in China in the past few decades. With a high sediment concentration and large variations of water discharge, the lower Yellow River has a much active channel in its form and location, which has hindered previous research efforts to study long-term differentiated erosion/deposition of different geomorphic units in the channel. In this study, we divided each of four typical channel across-sections at hydrological stations in the lower Yellow River into different units according to the geomorphological features, and give a detailed investigation of erosion/deposition processes of these geomorphic units and the interactions between them besides the influence of incoming water and sediment conditions. The results show that with a significant decreasing trend of both the annual runoff and sediment load of the river and abrupt changes in 1985–1996, the overall siltation trend in the river channel before 1990 had been replaced by a slight erosion trend after 2006. In the earlier period, the siltation in the upstream wandering and transitional reaches mainly occurred on floodplains and that in the downstream straight reaches principally on main channel bed. In the later period, erosion occurred mainly on high and low bank slopes in the wandering reaches and on main channel bed in the transitional reaches. The erosion became weak in the wandering reaches after 2010, continued in the transitional reaches, and was still relatively minor in the straight reaches, reflecting the downstream hysteresis channel response to changes in water and sediment discharges down dams. Our results suggest that the seasonal erosion/deposition of a geomorphic unit of the river channel can be attributed to the changes in water and sediment discharges as well as to the interaction between geomorphic units. Siltation on the main channel bed could be attributed to erosion on the bank slopes in both the sections in the wandering and transitional reaches, and erosion of the main channel bed in flood seasons was negatively related with the mean water discharge at the two sections in the straight reaches. This result implies that fixing the bank slopes in the wandering and transitional reaches and raising the water discharge in the straight reach in flood seasons are favorable options for controlling the development of the two-level perching channel of the lower Yellow River.

Abstract The water and sediment regimes of the Yellow River are the basis of decision-making of major projects of the Yellow River. Based on the water and sediment data at the Huayuankou station, Gaocun station, Aishan station, Lijin station in the lower reach of the Yellow River, the Mann-Kendall test, the T-test for differences, wavelet analysis, slope change ratio method and the double cumulative curve method were applied to analyze the runoff and sediment regimes alteration. The results show that the water and sediment of the lower Yellow River have a significant downward trend, and the annual sediment decreases significantly compared with the annual runoff. The annual runoff and sediment of the four hydrological stations changed around the 1980 and 1990s, respectively. The water and sediment of hydrological stations have periodic variations on multiple time scales, but the variation scales are different. Precipitation, human activities and other factors lead to the decrease trend of water and sediment in the lower Yellow River, and their contribution rates to the change of water and sediment are also different. Precipitation contributed 0.15%–8.71% and 0.06%–22.32% to the reduction of runoff and sediment load at hydrological stations, while human activities contributed 91.29%–99.85% and 77.68%–102.21% to the reduction of runoff and sediment load, respectively. Human activity is the main factor of runoff and sediment reduction.

Analyzed the sediment-transport process in the Lower Yellow river, the concept and normal calculating method for sediment-transport water volume are proposed. Based on field data of sediment and water volume in the Lower Yellow River from 1950 to 2000, the sediment-transport water volume and unit sediment-transport water volume in LYR are calculated. Furthermore, BP model is set up to calculate the high efficient sediment-transport water volume in the Lower Yellow River. Compared the results of BP model with normal calculating method, BP model is confirmed for calculating the high efficient sediment-transport water volume in the Lower Yellow river.
