The water resources in this region cannot be efficiently and rationally used due to the Received: 15-05-2020 Revised: 22-06-2020 complex topography and difficulty in developing water resources, which has led to problems such as Accepted: 16-07-2020 desertification and soil erosion. The most typical area of karst landforms is in Guizhou Province. A water management method for an interconnected river system network is proposed, taking Guiyang as an Key Words: example. This study provides a foundation for China’s South-to-North Water Diversion Project and can River system network improve socioeconomic conditions in China.
