Numerical Modelling of Ice Floods in the Ning-Meng Reach of the Yellow River Basin (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

During ice freeze-up and break-up in the Ning-Meng reach of the Northern Yellow River unfavourable conditions occur which may cause ice jamming and ice dam formation leading to dike breaching and overtopping of the embankment. The Yellow River Conservancy Commission (YRCC) developed an integrated water resources management plan to safeguard against ice floods and assure the availability of adequate water resources. In this research hydrological and meteorological data were analysed and a numerical ice flood model was developed, enabling better forecasting and improved decision support for upstream reservoir regulation and disaster risk reduction.

Autorenporträt

Wang Chunqing was born in 1972 in the historic city Kaifeng of Henan Province, China. He obtained his bachelor's degree in Department of Atmospheric Science of Nanjing University from 1990-1994. After graduation, he has worked at the Hydrology Bureau of the Yellow River Conservancy Commission, part of the Ministry of Water Resources (MWR), and has been engaged in the meteorological information processing and weather forecast of the Yellow River basin. From 2001-2003, he took part in the Water Scarcity Training Group sponsored by MWR and the Dutch government, and obtained MSc degree of Hydroinformatics (HI) at UNESCO-IHE. In 2009, he started the (partly time) PhD study at UNESCO-IHE with a main focus on the ice regime and ice flood modeling for the Ning-Meng reach of the Yellow River. Chunqing is currently director of the Hydrological and Water Resources Information Center of Hydrology Bureau, chiefly responsible for meteorological forecasting, water resources and ice flood forecasting, and network management of the Hydrology Bureau.
