We analyze 4000-year flood history of the lower Yellow River and the history of agricultural
development in the middle river by investigating historical writings and quantitative time …

Water discharge and sediment load have changed continuously during the last half century
in the Yellow River basin, China. In the present paper, data from 7 river gauging stations and …

The Yellow River basin contributes approximately 6% of the sediment load from all river
systems globally, and the annual runoff directly supports 12% of the Chinese population. As …

Throughout the history of China, the Yellow River has been associated with flood disasters
and changes in the course of its lower reaches because of sedimentation. From 602 BC to …

The lower reaches of the Yellow River (Huanghe), a typical “raised bed river,” have
experienced many huge flood events in Chinese history. As the main factor controlling the …

The spatiotemporal variations in suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in the lower
reaches of the Yellow River exhibit significant variability and are influenced by reservoir …

The Yellow River in China carries an extremely large sediment load. River channel-form and
lateral shifting in a dynamic, partly meandering and partly braided reach of the lower Yellow …

China has implemented a series of ambitious soil and water conservation (SWC) projects on
the Chinese Loess Plateau, which have significantly changed the erosion, transport, and …

Exploring the driving effects of control factors on changes in sediment yield from a
watershed perspective is of paramount importance for refined watershed management. The …

The channel geometry in an alluvial river usually varies in response to the altered flow and
sediment regime from upstream damming. Bankfull channel dimensions have significantly …
