Research on the Ecological Water Demand Based on Physical Habitat Simulation Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

A basin in Southwest China is selected as an example for ecological water demand calculation to obtain the ecological flow required for the survival of typical creatures within the watershed by solving the physical habitat model. The implementation of ecological operation can better meet the two fish suitable ecological needs for each life cycle, and is of great significance for fish conservation. Results indicate that the implementation of ecological operation has tremendous ecological environmental benefits and great significance for the protection of aquatic organisms.
