Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of habitat restoration, specifically a multi-objective optimization method for fish habitat restoration projects based on reservoir scheduling constraints. Background Technology

[0002] A multi-objective optimization method for fish habitat restoration projects based on reservoir scheduling constraints is a method that comprehensively considers the impact of reservoir scheduling on fish habitats. By optimizing scheduling strategies, it aims to achieve synergistic optimization of socio-economic goals such as flood control, power generation, and water supply, as well as multiple objectives including fish habitat restoration and ecological protection. Reservoir scheduling constraints refer to a series of conditions that a reservoir must meet during operation, including physical constraints such as water level limits, flow requirements, discharge capacity, and reservoir capacity curves, as well as socio-economic functional requirements such as flood control, power generation, and water supply. These constraints directly affect reservoir scheduling decisions, thereby impacting the ecological environment of downstream fish habitats.

[0003] Existing fish habitat restoration projects rely solely on historical hydrological data, failing to account for future climate change and extreme weather. This results in extremely poor adaptability to scenarios such as drought, floods, sudden water level changes, and increased flow velocities, leading to project failure and short lifespan. Ecological restoration is disconnected from reservoir operation; restoration plans often exceed the reservoir's actual operational capacity, making implementation impossible. Furthermore, they fail to provide stable habitats for fish in areas with large water level differences and unstable flow. Relying on experience-based judgments and lacking quantitative assessments of hydraulic indicators such as flow velocity, water depth, and water temperature, they cannot accurately match the actual needs of fish for temperature regulation, migration, spawning, and juvenile rearing, resulting in poor targeting and limited effectiveness. Optimizing only local habitat areas while ignoring overall river connectivity prevents fish from completing their full migration and floodplain utilization, hindering the true restoration of ecosystem structure and function. Existing schemes also cannot predict riverbed erosion and deposition, particularly in mountainous rivers, where restoration projects are easily eroded, deposited, or structurally unstable, leading to rapid attenuation of restoration effects and even secondary damage, resulting in extremely poor sustainability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a multi-objective optimization method for fish habitat restoration projects based on reservoir scheduling constraints. This method addresses the technical problems of existing technologies, such as poor climate adaptability, reliance on experience, unsustainable mountain rivers, conflicts with reservoir scheduling, insufficient connectivity, difficulty in ensuring long-term restoration effects, and difficulty in significantly improving the accuracy of fish habitat restoration while ensuring the safe and efficient operation of reservoirs.

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, the first aspect of this invention provides a multi-objective optimization method for fish habitat restoration projects based on reservoir scheduling constraints, comprising the following steps: Weather forecasts are made by combining the CMIP6 climate model with regional meteorological observation data, and the data is then downscaled and converted into watershed hydrological parameters. The rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules are clarified, and regional hydrological situation simulation is conducted based on the watershed hydrological parameters and rigid constraints to obtain the hydrological situation simulation results. Based on the ecological habits of the target fish species and combined with the rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules, a habitat hydraulic index habitat suitability response model is constructed to analyze habitat hydraulic suitability and establish connectivity evaluation indicators between longitudinal migration channels and transverse floodplain wetlands. The rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules are used as input boundary conditions to construct a coupled model of sediment transport-riverbed geomorphology-fish habitat suitability. Based on the coupled model of sediment transport, riverbed geomorphology, and fish habitat suitability, connectivity evaluation index, and habitat hydraulic suitability, combined with the characteristics of mountain rivers, a multi-objective optimization model is constructed. The multi-objective optimization model is solved by the NSGA-III improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm to obtain the Pareto optimal solution set and determine the optimal restoration scheme. Establish a long-term dynamic monitoring system for the restoration area, compare the collected hydrological data with the simulation results of the coupled model of sediment transport-riverbed geomorphology-fish habitat suitability, calculate the deviation, and analyze the comprehensive evaluation index to assess the restoration effect.

[0006] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, weather forecasts are made by combining the CMIP6 climate model with regional meteorological observation data, and then converted into watershed hydrological parameters through downscaling, including the following steps: Using the CMIP6 climate model and combined with regional meteorological observation data, we predict extreme weather data for a predetermined time period in the future. By downscaling, we can analyze the extreme precipitation intensity of extreme weather events and predict runoff during drought periods. The extreme precipitation intensity and drought runoff forecasts obtained from extreme weather events are converted into watershed hydrological parameters.

[0007] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, the rigid constraints of the reservoir scheduling rules are explicitly defined. Based on the watershed hydrological parameters and the rigid constraints, a regional hydrological situation simulation is performed to obtain the hydrological situation simulation results, including the following steps: Clearly define the rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules, including: water level constraints, discharge constraints, and water supply constraints; The water depth H(x,t) and flow velocity U(x,t) in region x at time t are obtained as the results of the hydrological situation simulation.

[0008] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, based on the ecological habits of the target fish species and combined with the rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules, a habitat hydraulic index habitat suitability response model is constructed to analyze habitat hydraulic suitability, including the following steps: Based on the ecological habits of the target fish species, combined with the rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules, and the results of hydrological situation simulation, including water depth H(x,t) in region x at time t and flow velocity U(x,t) in region x at time t, a habitat suitability response model based on habitat hydraulic indicators is constructed. For the velocity suitability function, depth suitability function, and temperature suitability function, velocity, depth, and temperature are used as hydrological parameters, and the same type of Logistic function is set. Perform fitting.

[0009] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, establishing a connectivity evaluation index between longitudinal migration channels and transverse floodplain wetlands includes the following steps: Based on the habitat suitability response model of habitat hydraulic indicators, the hydraulic suitability of habitat is analyzed. Combining the connectivity between longitudinal migration channels and transverse floodplain wetlands, an evaluation index for the connectivity between longitudinal migration channels and transverse floodplain wetlands is constructed. The connectivity co-optimization objective is set as follows: maximizing the vertical connectivity index (LCI) and the horizontal connectivity index (TCI).

[0010] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, the rigid constraints of the reservoir scheduling rules are used as input boundary conditions to construct a coupled model of sediment transport-riverbed geomorphology-fish habitat suitability, including the following steps: Using the rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules as input boundary conditions, a coupled model of sediment transport, riverbed geomorphology, and fish habitat suitability is constructed to predict changes in habitat quality.

[0011] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, based on a coupled model of sediment transport-riverbed geomorphology-fish habitat suitability, connectivity evaluation indicators, and habitat hydraulic suitability, combined with the characteristics of mountain rivers, a multi-objective optimization model is constructed, including the following steps: Based on a coupled model of sediment transport, riverbed geomorphology, and fish habitat suitability, connectivity evaluation indicators, and habitat hydraulic suitability, a multi-objective optimization model is constructed by embedding rigid and flexible constraints, including: To maximize ecological benefits, calculate the ecological benefit analysis values; The objective is to minimize project costs; therefore, the project cost analysis values ​​are calculated. To achieve the goal of maximizing restoration sustainability, calculate restoration sustainability analysis values.

[0012] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, rigid constraints and flexible constraints include: Rigid constraints are set as rigid constraints for reservoir operation; flexible constraints include gradient constraints, meandering constraints, engineering construction constraints, and ecological constraints.

[0013] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, the multi-objective optimization model is solved using the NSGA-III improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm to obtain the Pareto optimal solution set and determine the optimal repair scheme, including the following steps: An improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm using NSGA-III, incorporating both rigid and flexible constraints, is used to solve a multi-objective optimization model, including: Initialize the population, generate the initial population for the repair plan, and determine the population size; A fitness assessment is conducted, and the analytical values ​​of the ecological benefit maximization objective, engineering cost minimization objective, and restoration sustainability maximization objective for each individual are calculated. Combining rigid and flexible constraints, infeasible solutions are eliminated, and feasible solutions are retained. The feasible solutions are sorted in a non-dominated manner and divided into Pareto levels. The convergence speed and diversity of the algorithm are balanced by a dynamic adjustment mechanism of crossover probability and mutation probability. When the number of iterations reaches the preset number or the optimal solution tends to stabilize, the iteration is terminated, the Pareto optimal solution set is output, and the repair scheme corresponding to the Pareto optimal solution set is sent to experts, who will select the optimal repair scheme based on actual needs.

[0014] Optionally, in one example of the above aspects, based on the hydrological situation simulation results, the adaptive adjustment coefficient is analyzed according to the dynamic changes in water level, flow velocity, and water depth, and the comprehensive evaluation index is analyzed to evaluate the restoration effect, including the following steps: Based on the results of hydrological situation simulation, adaptive adjustment coefficients are analyzed according to the dynamic changes in water level, flow velocity, and water depth. An annual assessment of the restoration effect is conducted, and a comprehensive evaluation index is analyzed based on ecological benefits, engineering feasibility, and sustainability. If the adaptive adjustment coefficient is less than 0.6 or the comprehensive evaluation index is less than 0.6, a warning for the repair plan will be sent to the experts; otherwise, the original repair plan will continue to be implemented.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: This invention utilizes the CMIP6 climate model, regional meteorological observations, and statistical downscaling to transform future climate change into reliable watershed hydrological parameters. It addresses the root cause of traditional restoration methods that rely solely on current hydrological data and are unable to cope with future droughts, torrential rains, and drastic changes in water level and flow velocity. This ensures that habitat restoration projects can continue to function stably under future conditions, preventing projects from becoming ineffective immediately after construction and avoiding resource waste. It establishes rigid constraints and uses them as mandatory boundary conditions for hydrological simulation, habitat assessment, and project optimization, ensuring that ecological restoration does not compromise the safety of reservoir operations. This resolves the conflict between traditional ecological restoration and reservoir management, and the resulting impracticality of such projects.

[0016] This invention combines the ecological habits of target fish species, such as temperature orientation, migration, reproduction, and foraging, to construct a habitat hydraulic index-habitat suitability response model. This model enables a quantitative and refined assessment of the impact of key factors such as flow velocity, water depth, water level, and water temperature on habitats, eliminating reliance on qualitative experience and significantly improving the accuracy of restoration plans. Simultaneously, it constructs evaluation indicators for vertical and horizontal connectivity, overcoming the bottleneck of traditional restoration methods that only focus on local habitat area while neglecting the overall connectivity of rivers, truly meeting the needs of fish throughout their entire life cycle.

[0017] This invention dynamically couples sediment transport, riverbed erosion and deposition, geomorphological evolution, and habitat suitability, enabling long-term prediction of the impact of river topography changes on habitats. It is particularly well-suited to the characteristics of mountain rivers with steep gradients, high meandering, and intense water and sediment movement, ensuring the long-term stability of restoration projects and preventing erosion or siltation damage. Coupled with multi-dimensional objectives such as habitat suitability, engineering costs, and reservoir benefit losses, it employs the NSGA-III improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm to solve the multi-objective optimization model for global optimization, obtaining a Pareto optimal solution set. Based on decision preferences, it can output multiple optimal restoration schemes, such as ecological priority, economic priority, and balanced development, demonstrating strong engineering practicality.

[0020] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 The first aspect of this invention provides a multi-objective optimization method for fish habitat restoration projects based on reservoir scheduling constraints, comprising the following steps: Weather forecasts are made by combining the CMIP6 climate model with regional meteorological observation data, and the data is then downscaled and converted into watershed hydrological parameters. The rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules are clarified, and regional hydrological situation simulation is conducted based on the watershed hydrological parameters and rigid constraints to obtain the hydrological situation simulation results. Based on the ecological habits of the target fish species and combined with the rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules, a habitat hydraulic index habitat suitability response model is constructed to analyze the habitat hydraulic suitability and establish connectivity evaluation indicators between longitudinal migration channels and transverse floodplain wetlands. The rigid constraints of reservoir scheduling rules are used as input boundary conditions to construct a coupled model of sediment transport-riverbed geomorphology-fish habitat suitability. Based on the coupled model of sediment transport, riverbed geomorphology, and fish habitat suitability, connectivity evaluation index, and habitat hydraulic suitability, combined with the characteristics of mountain rivers, a multi-objective optimization model is constructed. The multi-objective optimization model is solved by an improved NSGA-III non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm to obtain the Pareto optimal solution set and determine the optimal restoration scheme. Establish a long-term dynamic monitoring system for the restoration area, compare the collected hydrological data with the simulation results of the coupled model of sediment transport-riverbed geomorphology-fish habitat suitability, calculate the deviation, and analyze the comprehensive evaluation index to assess the restoration effect.

[0022] Specifically, in this embodiment, the future climate change is transformed into reliable watershed hydrological parameters by using the CMIP6 climate model, regional meteorological observation, and statistical downscaling. This addresses the problem that traditional restoration methods rely solely on current hydrology and cannot cope with future droughts, rainstorms, and drastic changes in water level and flow velocity. This ensures that habitat restoration projects can still function stably in the future environment and avoids the project becoming ineffective and resources being wasted.

[0023] Clearly define rigid constraints and use them as mandatory boundary conditions for hydrological simulation, habitat assessment, and engineering optimization to ensure that ecological restoration does not exceed the bottom line of reservoir safety operation, and to solve the problems of conflict between traditional ecological restoration and reservoir scheduling, and the inability of projects to be implemented.

[0025] Simultaneously construct evaluation indicators for vertical and horizontal connectivity to break through the bottleneck of traditional restoration that only focuses on the area of ​​local habitats and ignores the overall connectivity function of rivers, and truly meet the needs of fish throughout their entire life cycle.

[0026] By dynamically coupling sediment transport, riverbed erosion and deposition, geomorphological evolution, and habitat suitability, this method enables long-term prediction of the impact of river topography changes on habitats. It is particularly well-suited to the characteristics of mountain rivers—large gradients, high meandering, and intense water and sediment transport—ensuring the long-term stability of restoration projects and preventing erosion or siltation damage. Coupled with multi-dimensional objectives such as habitat suitability, engineering costs, and reservoir benefit losses, the improved NSGA-III non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm is used to solve the multi-objective optimization model for global optimization, obtaining a Pareto optimal solution set. Based on decision preferences, it can output multiple optimal restoration schemes, such as ecological priority, economic priority, and balanced development, demonstrating strong engineering practicality.

This factor directly reflects the actual difficulty for fish to pass through this segment of the channel. The lower the proportion, the greater the obstacle, and the closer the Fi value is to 1. and For the corresponding weighting coefficients, in this embodiment, =0.75, =0.25.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, a multi-objective optimization model is constructed based on a coupled model of sediment transport-riverbed geomorphology-fish habitat suitability, connectivity evaluation indicators, and habitat hydraulic suitability, combined with the characteristics of mountain rivers, including the following steps: Based on a coupled model of sediment transport, riverbed geomorphology, and fish habitat suitability, connectivity evaluation indicators, and habitat hydraulic suitability, a multi-objective optimization model is constructed by embedding rigid and flexible constraints, including: To maximize ecological benefits, calculate the ecological benefit analysis values: in, This represents the value of the ecological benefit analysis. Let A be the hydraulic suitability index of the habitat in region x at time t, and let A be the total area of ​​the area to be restored.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, the rigid constraint and the flexible constraint include: Rigid constraints are set as rigid constraints for reservoir operation; flexible constraints include gradient constraints, meandering constraints, engineering construction constraints, and ecological constraints. Among them, the gradient constraint is: Jfmin≤Jf≤Jfmax, where Jf is the riverbed gradient of the area to be repaired, Jfmin is the minimum riverbed gradient of the area to be repaired, and Jfmax is the maximum riverbed gradient of the area to be repaired. Mooring constraint: W≥Wmin, where W is the river's mooring degree and Wmin is the preset minimum river mooring degree; Construction constraints: Afx≤Aab, Tsg≤Tlm, where Aab is the area available for restoration, Tlm is the construction period limit, Afx is the planned area for ecological restoration, and Tsg is the actual construction period; Ecological constraints: HSI(x,t)≥0.5 (core habitat), Qr(t)≥Qlm, where Qr(t) is the ecological flow at time t, and Qlm is the minimum flow required to maintain the basic ecological functions of the river.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, a multi-objective optimization model is solved using the NSGA-III improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm to obtain a Pareto optimal solution set and determine the optimal repair scheme, including the following steps: This paper improves the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm using NSGA-III by introducing adaptive crossover and mutation operators to enhance solution efficiency and optimal solution quality. It also embeds rigid and flexible constraints to solve multi-objective optimization models, including: Initialize the population, generate the initial population for the restoration plan, such as the combination of parameters like the location of the bank protection, the length of the fishway, and the scope of dredging, and determine the population size; A fitness assessment is conducted, and the analytical values ​​of the ecological benefit maximization objective, engineering cost minimization objective, and restoration sustainability maximization objective for each individual are calculated. Combining rigid and flexible constraints, infeasible solutions are eliminated, and feasible solutions are retained. Perform non-dominated sorting on feasible solutions, classify Pareto levels, and calculate crowding degree; The crossover probability Pc is calculated as follows: Pc = 0.7 + 0.2 * ranki / rankmax, and the mutation probability Pm = 0.05 + 0.05 * 1 / crowdi, where ranki is the individual Pareto rank, rankmax is the individual maximum Pareto rank, and crowdi is the crowding level. When the number of iterations reaches the preset number or the optimal solution tends to stabilize, the iteration is terminated, the Pareto optimal solution set is output, and the repair scheme corresponding to the Pareto optimal solution set is sent to experts, who will select the optimal repair scheme based on actual needs.

[0036] In this embodiment, the parameters in the optimal repair scheme include: Riverbank protection construction area ( This parameter determines the scale of the ecological revetment project. Different solutions may correspond to different revetment construction areas. The size of the area will affect the project cost and ecological benefits. A larger revetment area may provide better ecological protection, but it will also increase the project cost.

[0037] Fishway length ( Fishway length is a key factor influencing fish migration. Longer fishways may be more conducive to fish migration, improve habitat connectivity, and thus enhance ecological benefits, but they also increase engineering costs. In the Pareto optimal solution set, the appropriate fishway length is determined based on different objective balances.

[0038] Dredging volume ( The dredging volume reflects the scale of the dredging project. A reasonable dredging volume can improve the riverbed gradient and hydraulic conditions, significantly impacting ecological benefits and the sustainability of restoration. Different solutions will yield different dredging volumes, seeking an optimal balance among multiple objectives.

[0039] wetland restoration area ( The area of ​​wetland restoration directly affects the ecological function of wetlands. A larger wetland restoration area helps improve ecological benefits, such as improving water quality and providing habitats for organisms, but it also increases engineering costs. The solution set determines the appropriate wetland restoration area based on the trade-offs of the objective function.

[0040] Riverbed gradient J(x): Under the premise of satisfying the gradient constraint (Jmin≤J(x)≤Jmax), different solutions may correspond to different riverbed gradient distributions. A suitable riverbed gradient can adapt to the large gradient characteristics of mountain rivers and ensure the natural flow characteristics and ecological functions of the river.

[0041] River meandering degree W: To satisfy the meandering degree constraint (W≥Wmin), the solution set will include restoration schemes with different meandering degrees. Maintaining a certain river meandering degree helps to maintain the natural form of the river, provides a suitable living environment for fish and other organisms, and has a positive effect on ecological benefits and the sustainability of restoration.

[0042] The planned ecological restoration area, Afx, is constrained by engineering construction constraints (Afx ≤ Aab). Different solutions will determine different planned restoration areas to strike a balance between engineering construction feasibility and multiple objectives.
