The study looked at how much water is needed to keep the natural balance of the East Liaohe River Basin. They found that the river system needs 44.43% of the yearly water flow, and the floodplain land needs 28.02% of the total rainfall. To protect the water resources in the area, it's important to control how much water is used.
