Water Allocation of Yellow River Basin in Shanxi

Abstract:

Traditionally the water resources development activities in China were related to improving irrigated agriculture. The quantity based administrative allocation is the most common water allocation mode in China today. This paper analysis the water allocation of Yellow River basin in Shanxi province via technical methods. The objectives of water allocation in Yellow River basin are expressed in terms of priority settings, and different demand management options are also evaluated using the proposed methodology.
