Abstract. To provide better service of hydrologic forecasting in the construction period of Datengxia Hydroproject that is the largest one under construction on the Pearl River, this paper focuses in analysing the characteristics of the regional floods, and reviewing the hydrologic forecasting work since starting construction, and discussing the hydrologic forecasting methods of the period not only the river closure but also the initial filling. The paper presents some practical work experiences and suitable forecasting methods on the basis of the construction schedule and the river diversion schemes. The study will conducive to improve our service ability of hydrologic forecasting and provide the important technical support of safe construction during the flood season.

Ocean Tide Models

Ocean tide models with satellite altimetry can simulate global ocean tides conveniently and accurately. However, it was not sure for them to have a same good performance in estuaties and coastal zones. To assess their accuracy in the Pearl River estuaries, tidal elevations were computed respectively by three models NAO.99b, OTPS and WWT, and compared with the hourly observed data. RMS misfits were calculated and the results suggest that the models are competent to demonstrate the basic time features of tides and the accuracy is not lower than that of traditional methods in some certain periods and areas. The models behave better in the mouth zones, especially in the open area outside, but in the upstreams have differences between dry season and flood season. At the entrances, compared with the river-dominated estuary, the models indicate more accurate estimations for the tide-dominated estuaries. WWT is recommended among these three models.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has planned future flood control for a rainfall intensity of 100 mm/hr, which corresponds to a return period of 70 years, and a runoff coefficient of 0.8. Considering that the realization of this plan requires a long construction period and high construction costs, the decision was made to proceed by stages. In the first stage, the improvement of the facilities will be based on a rainfall intensity of 75 mm/hr (presently 50 mm/hr), corresponding to a return period of 17 years, and a runoff coefficient of 0.8. In the next stage the facilities will be improved to accommodate a rainfall intensity of 100 mm/hr. In the Nakano and Suginami regions, which suffer frequently from flooding, the plan of improvement based on a rainfall intensity of 75 mm/hr is being implemented before other areas. This facility will be used as a storage sewer for the time being. The Wada-Yayoi Trunk Sewer, as a project of this plan, will have a diameter of 8 m and a 50 m earth cover. This trunk sewer will be constructed considering several constraints. To resolve these problems, hydraulic experiments as well as an inventory study have been carried out. A large drop shaft for the trunk sewer is under construction.

The Pearl River Estuary (PRE) is one of the major fishing grounds for the squid Uroteuthis chinensis. Taking that into consideration, this study analyzes the environmental effects on the spatiotemporal variability of U. chinensis in the PRE, on the basis of the Generalized Additive Model (GAM) and Clustering Fishing Tactics (CFT), using satellite and in situ observations. Results show that 63.1% of the total variation in U. chinensis Catch Per Unit Effort (CPUE) in the PRE could be explained by looking into outside factors. The most important one was the interaction of sea surface temperature (SST) and month, with a contribution of 26.7%, followed by the interaction effect of depth and month, fishermen’s fishing tactics, sea surface salinity (SSS), chlorophyll a concentration (Chl a), and year, with contributions of 12.8%, 8.5%, 7.7%, 4.0%, and 3.1%, respectively. In summary, U. chinensis in the PRE was mainly distributed over areas with an SST of 22–29 °C, SSS of 32.5–34‰, Chl a of 0–0.3 mg × m−3, and water depth of 40–140 m. The distribution of U. chinensis in the PRE was affected by the western Guangdong coastal current, distribution of marine primary productivity, and variation of habitat conditions. Lower stock of U. chinensis in the PRE was connected with La Niña in 2008.
