An Integrated Hydrological Model for the Restoration of Ecosystems in Arid Regions: Application in Zhangye Basin of the Middle Heihe River Basin, Northwest China

Abstract: River basins in or across arid regions have been facing intensified water scarcity and ecological problems, mainly due to the intense irrigated agriculture. Integrating the multiprocesses in hydrological cycle is quite necessary to make reasonable management strategies. In this paper, an integrated multiprocess hydrological model was proposed by coupling river water flow, groundwater flow, canal conveyance, and vadose water flow processes. It was applied to the Zhangye basin of middle Heihe River basin for sea… Show more

“…The development and utilization of water resources in arid regions of Northwest China are expounded from the levels and zones of river hydrology and ecosystem [11][12]. Heihe River Basin in Northwest China has the most extended history, the most profound depth and the most investment in the study of human development of water resources and its impact on local ecology in arid areas which suffers severe ecological problems [13][14][15].…”

“…The interaction between surface water and groundwater is an important part of the hydrological cycle in a basin (Lago et al 2010; Maassen and Dagmar 2010). Many human activities cause interstitial sedimentation or damage to surface–groundwater hydrological connections, affecting the ecological processes between the two (Wei et al 2011; Cheng et al 2014; Liu et al 2018).…”

“…It is widely recognized that successful wetland rehabilitation must include the restoration of vertical links of surface water and groundwater (Kasahara and Hill 2006; Boulton 2007). For the excessive extraction of groundwater, the groundwater irrigation amount per hectare of farmland should be calculated to more accurately calculated the lost amount of groundwater and improve irrigation efficiency (Liu et al 2018; Li and Ren 2019). An increase in the amount of water replenished in the wetland, in turn, increases the amount of groundwater recharge for the wetland (Fan et al 2012).…”

“…To investigate the interactions between groundwater, soil freezing and thawing process, and human water use, a high‐resolution land model CAS‐LSM including groundwater lateral flow and human water regulation was developed and applied for the entire HRB (Xie et al, ). For the agricultural oasis in the midstream area of the HRB, an integrated model coupling river water, groundwater, vadose zone waterflow, and canal conveyance was developed, and based on scenario analysis and model prediction, how to reduce agricultural water use and restore the natural ecosystem was proposed (Liu, Xu, et al, ).…”
