Prediction of Reservoir Sedimentation in the Long Term Period Due to the Impact of Climate Change: A Case Study of Pleikrong Reservoir

Abstract: Reservoirs are essential structures to provide reliable water supply, hydropower, and flood control. Climate change could be a significant factor that increases the sediment yield leading to rapid reduction of the reservoir’s storage capacity and design life. Previous studies of reservoir sedimentation-related impact of climate change often coupled a hydrological model with the raw outputs of general circulation model (GCM)/regional circulation model (RCM), which shows bias when comparing with observations dat… Show more

“…The nature and morphology of sloping terrain, the fragility of vegetation cover, the lack of afforestation, and the upstream dam urbanization generate strong erosion that reduces the storage capacity of dams from 0.5 to 1 % each year [15,16], following the siltation, due to the transport and deposit of sediments by the surface runoff. Before new dam projects were accounted for, researchers estimated that more than a quarter of the global reservoir storage capacity would be lost by 2050 [17,18]. This capacity loss in our existing reservoirs threatens the sustainability of global water supplies as the demand for water storage increases and the availability of feasible and economically justifiable sites for new reservoirs decreases [6].…”

“…As a consequence, retention of river/stream runo s in reservoirs has been identi ed as a feasible option for ghting global water challenges [5][6][7]. Reservoirs, therefore, play an important economic role, which sorely depends on the water storage capacity [8][9][10]. However, reservoir operations are often subjected to recurring stresses associated with huge water demands from the rising human population and agricultural activities [3,11,12].…”

“…Reservoir sedimentation is a chronic problem that affects not only the storage capacity but also sustainable use [10,12,15,20]. In this regard, reservoir sedimentation studies provide a scientific understanding of catchment sediment budgets, depositional processes, reservoir operations, and, above all, the commissioning of dams [25,26].…”
