The Flood and Sediment Characteristics of the Lower Yellow River in China
The Lower Yellow River is well known for its high sediment content and disastrous floods. For thousands of years, roaring floods have run through China's populated Northern Plain and caused countless damages. Understanding the basic characteristics of floods andsedimentation and their relationship is crucial to the development of a comprehensive flood protection plan for the Lower Yellow River By illustrating the erosion/deposition patterns under different flood and sediment inputs, this article explains these characteristics and discusses principles for controlling sediment distributions in this complex river system.
