The response of runoff from inland river basins is becoming increasingly complex due to climate change and intensification of human activities, as well as underlying surface impacts. The annual distribution pattern of runoff shows spatio-temporal heterogeneity, which affects hydropower generation, irrigation, ecological-cultural value of river runoff, and puts pressure on water resource management projects.
The Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region in China is experiencing a serious ecological water scarcity problem in the context of climate warming and drying. There is an urgent need for practical adaptation measures to cope with the adverse impacts of climate change and provide a scientific basis for urban water supply planning, water resource management, and policy formulation. Urban ecological water can maintain the structure and function of urban ecosystems, both as an environmental element and as a resource. Current research lacks quantitative analysis of the impact of regional meteorological factors on ecological water use at the small and medium scales. Based on the meteorological data and statistical data of water resources in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (BTH) region, this paper analyzed the trend of climate change and established an ecological climatic water model using gray correlation analysis, polynomial simulation, and singular spectrum analysis to predict the e
According to the natural condition of water resources and the economic, social, and ecological environment status of Zhangye City, the water resources carrying capacity of Zhangye City is evaluated by using the water resources carrying capacity Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) model with combination assignment. The results show that: (1) From 2010 to 2020, the water resources carrying capacity of Zhangye City was generally stable at the macro level, ranking at grades III and IV. However, from the micro level, the water resources carrying capacity fluctuates to a certain extent and shows an increasing trend year by year. (2) The steady improvement of economic and social conditions is the main driving force for the improvement of the comprehensive water resources carrying capacity of Zhangye City, and the changes in the ecological environment are also important factors affecting the carrying capacity of water resources. The results provided a dec
