Megdal Received: 6 December 2016; Accepted: 13 March 2017; Published: 16 March 2017 Abstract: Human disturbances impact river basins by reducing the quality of, and services provided by, aquatic ecosystems. Conducting quantitative assessments of ecological security at the watershed scale is important for enhancing the water quality of river basins and promoting environmental management. In this study, China’s Songhua River Basin was divided into 204 assessment units by combining watershed and administrative boundaries. Ten human threat factors were identified based on their significant influence on the river ecosystem. A modified ecological threat index was used to synthetically evaluate the ecological security, where frequency was weighted by flow length from the grids to the main rivers, while severity was weighted by the potential hazard of the factors on variables of river ecosystem integrity. The results showed that individual factors related to urbanization, agricultural development and facility construction presented different spatial distribution characteristics. At the center of the plain area, the provincial capital cities posed the highest level of threat, as did the municipal districts of prefecture-level cities.

  • Water Pollution and Health Impact in China: a Mini Review Wen-Qing Lu*, Shao-Hua Xie, Wen-Shan Zhou, Shao-Hui Zhang, Ai-Lin Liu
    Open Environmental Sciences, 2008, 2, 1-5 1 Open Access Water Pollution and Health Impact in China: A Mini Review Wen-Qing Lu*, Shao-Hua Xie, Wen-Shan Zhou, Shao-Hui Zhang, Ai-Lin Liu Department of Occupational and Environmental Health, MOE Key Lab of Environment and Health, School of Public Health, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, Hubei, China Abstract: For the last 20-odd years in China, an economic boom has resulted in severe environmental pollution; water pollution, particularly, is of great concern. It has been reported that pollution in China’s overall surface water is rated me- dium. The water quality of groundwater, lakes and reservoirs has deteriorated. Consequently, such a general distribution of water pollution has posed a grave threat to public health in China. The health impact of water pollution has been docu- mented in the last several decades; these documents are reviewed in this paper on several outstanding aspects, including chronic mercurialism, arsenism, cancers related to microcystins, health problems caused by organic pollutants and water pollution accidents as well. Indubitably, water pollution and its health impact remain enormous challenges in China. Keywords: Water pollution, health impact, public health. In the last 20-odd years, there has been a boom in eco- induced water shortage have been the two biggest factors nomic development in China.

Therefore, identification and quantification of the driving factors of runoff variation have become a hot research area. This paper used the trend analysis method to show that runoff had a significant downward trend during the past 60 years in the Second Songhua River Basin (SSRB) of Northeast China. The upper, middle, and lower streams of five hydrological stations were selected to analyze the breakpoint of the annual runoff in the past 60 years, and the breakpoints were used to divide the entire study period into two sub-periods (1956–1974 and 1975–2015). Using the water–energy coupling balance method based on Choudhury–Yang equation, the climatic and catchment landscape elasticity coefficient of the annual runoff change was estimated, and attribution analysis of the runoff change was carried out for the Fengman Reservoir and Fuyu stations in SSRB.

Received: 18 June 2019; Accepted: 25 July 2019; Published: 29 July 2019 Abstract: Hydropower development causes a multitude of negative effects on freshwater ecosystems, and to prevent and minimize possible damage, environmental impact assessments must be conducted and optimal management scenarios designed. This paper examines the impacts of both existing and proposed hydropower development on the transboundary Amur River basin shared by Russia, China, and Mongolia, including the effectiveness of different tools and measures to minimize damage. It demonstrates that the application of various assessment and conservation tools at the proper time and in the proper sequence is the key factor in mitigating and minimizing the environmental impacts of dams. The tools considered include basin-wide assessments of hydropower impacts, the creation of protected areas on rivers threatened by dam construction, and environmental flows. The results of this work show how the initial avoidance and mitigation of hydropower impacts at early planning stages are more productive than the application of any measures during and after dam construction, that the assessment of hydropower impacts must be performed at a basin level rather than be limited to a project implementation site, and that the full spectrum of possible development scenarios should be considered.

    E2646 V1 1. Introduction Public Disclosure Authorized 1.1. Project Background The proposed Harbin-Jiamusi (HaJia Line hereafter) Railway Project is a new 342 km double track railway line starting from the city of Harbin, running through Bing County, Fangzheng County, Yilan County, and ending at the city of Jiasmusi. The Project is located in Heilongjiang Province, and the south of the Songhua River, in the northeast China (See Figure 1-1). The total investment of the Project is RMB 38.66 Billion Yuan, including a World Bank loan of USD 300 million. The construction period is expected to last 4 years, commencing in July 2010. Commissioning of the line is proposed by June 2014. Public Disclosure Authorized HaJia Line, as a Dedicated Passenger Line (DPL) for inter-city communications and an important part of the fast passenger transportation network in northeast of China will extend the Harbin-Dalian dedicated passenger Line to the the northeastern area of Heilongjiang Province, and will be the key line for the transportation system in Heilongjiang Province to go beyond. The project will bring together more closely than before Harbin , Jiamusi and Tongjiang, Shuangyashan, Hegang, Yinchun among which there exists a busy mobility of people potentially demanding high on passenger transportation. The completion of the project will make it possible for the passenger line and cargo train line between Harbin and Jiamusi to be separated, and will extend the the Public Disclosure Authorized line Harbin-Dalian passenger line to the northeast of Heilongjiang Province,It willl also strengthen the skeleton of the railway network of the northeastern part of China and optimize the express passenger transportation network of the northeast.

Suitability Evaluation on River Bank Filtration of the Second Songhua River, China Lixue Wang, Xueyan Ye, and Xinqiang Du College of Environment and Resources, Jilin University, China ([email protected]) The Second Songhua River is the biggest river with the most economic value in Jilin Province, China. In recent years, with the rapid development of economy, water resources and water environment problem is getting promi- nent, including surface water pollution and over exploitation of groundwater resources, etc. By means of bank filtration, the Second Songhua River basin might realize the combined utilization of regional groundwater and sur- face water, and thus has important significance for the guarantee of water demand for industrial and agricultural production planning in the basin. The following steps were adopted to evaluate the suitability of bank filtration nearby the Scond Songhua River : Firstly, in order to focus on the most possible area, the evaluation area was divided based on the aspects of natural geographical conditions and hydraulic connection extent between river water and groundwater. Second, the main suitability indexes including water quantity, water quality, interaction intensity between surface water and groundwater, and the exploitation condition of groundwater resource, and nine sub-indexes including hydraulic conductivity, aquifer thickness, river runoff, the status of groundwater qual- ity, the status of surface water quality, groundwater hydraulic gradient, possible influence zone width of surface water under the condition of groundwater exploitation, permeability of riverbed layer and groundwater depth were proposed to establish an evaluation index system for the suitability of river bank filtration.
