Water regulation tests on Yellow River increase flooding capacity, idealize river development.

Water Management

A new river training scheme was developed to increase sediment transport capacity in the Lower Yellow River. By analyzing the river's characteristics, researchers found a secondary main channel, leading to new design parameters for the training scheme. This approach aims to address changes in river regime caused by different water processes, providing a fresh perspective on river training.
