The invention discloses a method for determining the
cascade reservoir interval incoming
sediment amount and distributing the
cascade reservoir interval incoming
sediment amount along the flowing path. The method includes the steps that firstly, the
sediment runoff data of
cascade reservoir
main stem and
branch control stations, damsites and intervals are collected; secondly, the sediment runoff and process of the damsites in the typical series year are determined according to the ratio of the average yearly sediment runoffs of the damsites to nearby control hydrometric stations in multiple years; thirdly, the sediment runoff difference between the upstream reservoir damsite and the entering-reservoir control
station serves as the uncontrolled interval incoming sediment amount, and the sediment runoff difference between the upstream reservoir damsite and the downstream damsite serves as the uncontrolled interval incoming sediment amount of the downstream reservoir; fourthly, in the uncontrolled interval, when one
branch has no sediment runoff data in the typical series year but has the average yearly sediment runoff data in multiple years, the
branch uses the average yearly sediment runoff data in multiple years; and fifthly, other incoming sediment amount except for the know branch in the uncontrolled interval is evenly distributed into the
main stem watercourse along the flowing path. By means of the method for determining the cascade reservoir interval incoming sediment amount and distributing the cascade reservoir interval incoming sediment amount along the flowing path, the cascade reservoir interval incoming sediment amount can be determined reasonably, and
technical support is provided for prediction and calculation of sediment
erosion and deposition of the cascade reservoir.
